Overview
About Me
Right now I cannot host but I hope to change that as soon as I can!
People say I am down-to-earth, calm and positive. I think I was once even criticised on being 'too' relaxed. In reality, it is just that I do not concern myself with worry about unimportant things. When being in other peoples places it always important for me to be respectful, courteous and polite but also to have a good time and try new things.
I love being around people but I personally am not one to be the centre of attention. For this reason I can be kinda quiet and sometimes just happy to watch and listen to life as it unfolds.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love meeting new people and learning about other cultures. I hope to offer people a place to stay in the near future.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music is a passion of mine. I like to play guitar particularly funk music and gypsy jazz.
My favourite film directors are Pedro Almodovar, Jean Luc Godard, Michel Gondry and Wes Anderson.
I like to read science fiction but it seems I read more non-fiction these days relating to existential philosophy and Eastern spirituality.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Recording a 10 piece Latin American band.
Volunteering and staying with a family in rural Nicaragua.
Teach, Learn, Share

A great game of 'irish snap' or a competitive board game.
