According to the references written about me I'm a very wise man, humorous and open minded, who is comfortable to be around, makes for good conversation and a very good cook. What more could I add? :-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: lately I'm into old soul, blues and jazz music. Also classical music, mostly choir music. But I can also enjoy heavy metal or drum n bass or techno.

Last great movie I saw was Birdman.

I'm reading Six Degrees by Mark Lynas (which is quite depressing).
