CURRENT MISSION

Dying like you're alive

ABOUT ME

Sometimes wacky, sometimes serious, all around satisfied. Surprise me or find me something ridiculously sublime and I'll be there!

PHILOSOPHY

Things are always in flux: reflect, reject, and adapt.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A friend's recommendation.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One of the best enterprises on the net, and people I've met so far are amazing, it's a lone traveler's dream come true.

Interests

Monocle Lifestyle, novellas under 100 pages, Zizek's cultural theory, morning swims in the pool, nonsensical blabbering, unexpected dancing, collector of the best coffee beans around the world, useless neologisms, A.P.C. suits, instagram accounts of people with a devil may care attitude (from a perspective full of envy), and foodie blogs!

Anthony Bourdain is my hero!

• dancing
• coffee
• billiards

Cinema: from Lars Von Trier to the latest romantic comedies

Do we share anything?

I work for an tech + entertainment company, so I'm also a big TV watcher. Ask me anything! However, I do not watch a lot of comedies since the majority of dramas I do invest in are actually unintentional comedies in disguise.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Work In Progress, I'm endlessly astounded by trivial things.
