"We're captive on a carousel of time"
said Buddha?
said Joni Mitchell?
or maybe you?
does it matter??
no, I don't think so

Loves not "have to this, have to do that"

PHILOSOPHY

Hearts starve as well as bodies
give us bread, but give us roses

I love you when I forget about me

"You know poverty can be romantic"

But believe it or not, you won't find it so hot.
If you aint got the Do Re Mi

Woody Guthrie is a genius. He's got a great sense of humor too. Brilliant in every way

Tapping a simple rhythm

sheds his skin
to find a butterfly within

I don't eat animals
and they don't eat me

"Je vois la vie en rose bonbon"

Under the pavement is a beach!

"You can if you wanna!" -Sara Ekberg(in english Oakmountain)

"La vie n'est que l'interminable répétition d'une représentation qui n'aura jamais lieu"

"Il faut se preter aux autres at se donner a soi-meme"

Lose your dreams
and you will lose your mind

I am on a lonely road and I am
traveling, traveling, traveling

First there is a mountain
then there is no mountain
then there is!

But you're bound to lose
If you let the blues
get you scared to feel

Show some emotion
Put expression in your eyes
Light up
If you're feeling happy
But if it's bad
Then let those tears roll down

All we need is love

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I fell in love with Berlin

I stayed at a cellarapartment in Hamburg for one night. This memory contains caps flying about, top notch veggie-burgers and a gypsiepunk-concert I'll never forget

I drank swedish style coffee (no cups) at the Gray Monk in Stockholm's Old Town with nice guys from Turkey

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got purified by a local shaman (medicinman) in a shantytown in Knysna, Southafrica

I've watched the sunrise tint a waterlily-pond (red, yellow, purple..) in front of Angkor Wat while listening to cambodian munks humming their morningprayer, comped by crickets

I've ridden a harmonica-playing babyelephant called Rose in Thailand. I've also ridden a psychomaniac-ostrich on an ostrichfarm in Southafrica

I saw the light at the end of the tunnel when I was determined to win a toboggan-run after a late dinner in a restaurant in Austria, located on top of a hill. The only way down was a toboggan-slide and we decided to make a competition out of it. It was jet black. I was eleven and competing against men who were twice my age, and twice my weight. The slide had no safety-net

I've pretended to be Jack Sparrow on a ship called the Black Pearl, breaking waves in Halong Bay (Vietnam), surrounded by colourful watergypsies

I've seen a cambodian minevictim, a man without legs holding a begging-cap in his right hand, double up in laughter over something his fiveyearold (drama queen of a) son said

Teach, Learn, Share

Everything I know, I just can't remember what that is right now
