CURRENT MISSION

Learn and teach myself to be creative.

ABOUT ME

Some friends think I travel a lot. I try not to disillusion them, so I am always looking for the next chance to move. I like to be busy sometimes. That means, doing nothing usually is unacceptable for me. That does not involve Sleeping.
At the moment, I'm working hard and vividly on my Indonesian skills.
I live in Toronto where I'm a PhD Candidate in Antropology. My research allows me to travel often to Indonesia.

So I'm not sure where I'll be when you consult my profile. You can try to find out, though.

PHILOSOPHY

Let's leave this trendy bar for some place a bit more real.

Lyrics from Eef Barzelay

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As an undergraduate student, I worked on a scientific view of the Couchsurfing community and identity. Maybe that's why you stumbled upon this profile. I published some results here:

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I marvel at the hospitality and mentality of the people who have hosted me so far. It's been a fantastic time. I officially surfed in Perpignan, Toulouse, Köln, Heidelberg, Yogyakarta, Jakarta, etc. I hosted a couple of times in Münster, Paris and Strasbourg and always enjoyed the presence of these visitors...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

People, love, struggle, waves.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I play the guitar but I am a lousy teacher. We could try it, though. I know some freaky tricks with my hands, matches, bottles of beer and stuff, to untie sociability knots on evenings that are supposed to be fun.
I practice Yoga and Self Defense. Oh yeah, and I can juggle a little.

I'd like to learn how to draw.
