Optimistic, curious and a bit nerdy (science-nerdy, not computer-nerdy: I'm a programmer by trade and my life already has more than enough computery things).

I'm proactive and a procrastinator at the same time: when I start something I commit fully, but I can as easily not bother starting it and let time go by.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like chatting with new people and learn about places near and far.

Interests

I can endure some small talk, but not much.

Aside from that, any topic can be interesting (some more easily than others: unless you are as prepared as to digress on the differences between plateau and marilyn shoes, I'll find fashion hardly interesting).

• cooking
• geopolitics
• science
• eating
• different cultures
• world history

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
I mostly listen to chillout (jazz to downtempo and some trip-hop), but I like other genres too.

Movies:
I'm not really into movies, but I do love old Hitchcock flicks (and appreciate all non-stupid movies).

Books:
I used to love novels; nowadays I mostly read essays.
I'm not to the point of considering a book unworthy unless there are equations in it (not yet).
