ABOUT ME

I am smart and handsome. And rich. And I have a Vespa.
ah.
I love traveling and spend my time planning trips and tours (for me and others) I wish people would ask for more Travels and less Sharm el Sheikh when they come to the agency! I studied (I haven't finished yet to be honest)graphic design and spend my (free)time teaching myself web design. I actually do own a vespa and love to ride around. I can make great coffee vietnamese style and am a decent cook. I have a dog and a girlfriend (well she has me, mostly.) I am interested in politics and philosophy and hate maths. I love art history and tend to learn stuff about places =)There's more I am sure but my boss already asked me: what are you doing?

PHILOSOPHY

I would love to be an anarcho-feminist, but I am still working on that... so let's just say I chase freedom!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I jump in!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been couchsurfing a lot, mainly through friends of friends of friends, never done it through the www though, so I guess I'll update this part later on.
Ah, my best couchsurfing experience was so good I actually moved in =) (it was in Barcelona)

Interests

I am interested in too many things. In fact, I am one of those awful people who can turn a coffee into a nonstop-full-night-deep exchange of stories/ideas/feelings/songs/etc...

Music, Movies, and Books

I'll make it quick:
I love with all my heart quentin tarantino and pedro almodovar.
I think fight club is one of the few films which are actually as good as the book.
I love to watch Shrek and find out as many quotes as I can.
I read loads of books and the first chapter of 'the master and Margherita' change my whole perception of humanity. I love Hemingway's literature but I usually don't get along with people who love Hemingway. I think mainly cause Hemingway was a violent alcoholic dickhead. I am sure I made some spelling mistakes.
