About Me

[PS : Currently travelling and thus unable to host, but feel free to drop me a message if you need some tips on what to see/do in Singapore :) ]

Give me some good music. Some good company. A great place with amazing beer. A good book. Bar-Hopping. I'm as easy as it comes!

Doesn't take a genius to figure it out, but I love travelling - the best part of it would be talking to different people from completely different backgrounds and cultures, with varying viewpoints. I'm always up for a good conversation over some beer and a bare soul - because one too many beers always ends you up with a bare soul (and only that if you're lucky)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a host:
If you're in Singapore, and you'd like to head to a good bar - let me know. I will be more than happy to bring you out on a night of bar hopping :)
Or to just check out the streets of Singapore :)

As a Couchsurfer:
My Couchsurfing experience has been bsolutely crazy and lovely! Met so many new people with interesting characters and stories to tell. Always ended up with a good night - can't always remember EVERY part of the night, but that's not necessarily a problem ;)

Interests

It's hard to limit it, but I'll try. Gotta love a good bar with good beer. Cant live a day without music. Always up for something new a place has to offer. I love learning from other people's stories about their experiences in life.

Music, Movies, and Books

It's pretty hard to make up my mind with this, so i'll just name the first few that comes to my mind :-

Movies : Fight Club, Pan's Labyrinth, Wanted, Trainspotting, Memento, City of Lost Children, Nightmare before Christmas (well, its a cartoon movie, BUT you still gotta love it!)
Music : Marilyn Manson, Rammstein, The Prodigy.. .and then the other end of the spectrum, instrumentals by Yann Tiersen etc
Books : Fire&Hemlock (Diana Wynn Jones), The Sixth Phase (and a hell load of crime thrillers), the entire Sandman series by Neil Gaiman, American Gods

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- Hitchhiking from Delft in the Netherlands, all the way to Berlin in 10 hours, in Winter. Every single person who offered us a ride had such a colorful personality with amazing stories.

-Swimming in sea, in the dark, by the deserted beach of Koh Mook. A little scary but in the company of 3 other it was worth it.

-The view from the Tokyo Tower in the middle of winter. The streets looked like an illuminated starfish from the top - and it was amazing, because it was snowing as well. Won't ever forget that sight.
And getting lost in the woods in Japan at Fukushima with a friend. Ended up sitting by a stream on a log - it seemed like a page out of a book. So we just lit our cigarettes and talked for hours before deciding it might be time to find our way back :)
