Overview
About Me
I born in the States and due to my career I've been travelling a lot, from Europe to Africa! I am an architect. I love art, history and of course architecture :) I am an easy going guy. Smiling and being optimistic would solve most of dilemmas, I believe in that.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing would be a great opportunity to experience new cultures and gain new friendships.
Interests
I love art, of course architecture, archeology, history, music and languages. I try to catch some words and sentences from foreign languages and try to keep them in my mind. Who knows, i might use it somewhere - somehow :) I got my PADI certificate and love scuba diving!!! :)
Music, Movies, and Books
I love history based novels. My favorites are; 1- The Tudor Court series by Philippa Gregory. 2- “The guardians of the covenant” – mostly based in Norway. 3- “The Great Expectations” by Charles Dickens. 4- to be or not to be... :)
Likewise about the movies :) for example; The Mist of Avalon, most of the "Middle Earth" movies and Mommy Dearest (such a drama!)
For the music; actually it varies... from pop to rock, celtic to classical...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Did the skydiving-tandem, zip line, swing and free falls from time to time. Sounds like I am an adrenaline junkie, but not yet :)
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can (as much as I can) share my sympathy, knowledge, experiences and ideas. Gratitude, at the end of course.
