About Me

ABOUT ME

First very important thing to mention since many people don't read profiles completely is that I don't live in Bangkok.

I'm kinda eccentric ( well, if you don't know me well, you'll never notice that)... for the time being I prefer to be called as a person with "particular" views on life ;), a bit egoistic or better to say independent. Honest and sometimes can be straightforward. Some people say I'm serious and conservative. well, why not?

I travel like Rolf Potts !
You are a travel legend in the making, with a sense of adventure that will lead to hundreds of fascinating stories. Locals all over the world will give you special nicknames, and almost all of them will be complimentary.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

CS is a great community and it gives opportunity to meet interesting people and become real friends. CS is not a dating site :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

so far I'm very lucky with my CS experience.and Indonesian CS community is just unbelievable. It seems like all open minded, smart and friendly people joined this community on Sumatera!

Interests

well, I have some interests, but sometimes I change them drastically. I think my first and greatest interest is in life itself, other interests are changeable, as a person changes, grows during the course of her life. But at this stage of my "personal growth" I'd name Yoga, occasionally learning a new foreign language among my big interests. I like architecture and painting, although I don't paint, listening to music and also listening to silence :)I like flowers and trees, birds, etc
Yes, I like nature more and more, wild nature

as for other interests ... I try to mention them as soon as they come to my mind.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books by Krishnamurti and other non-fiction:)
I like listening to classical music, from Romantic era my absolutely favorites are Mahler, Richard Strauss, but recently I was very much fascinated with Baroque era composers like Rameau, Dowland, German composers of this epoque, Gregorianic chants as well. What else? hm... I think from still living composers I admire Philip Glass :)

I'm not particulary keen on movies, hardly ever seen the classical stuff , so called "must know" and no "Avatar" at all;)

But documentaries, yes, I like them(about countries, interesting people, etc)
