Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've hosted a lot of people without being a couchsurfing member. It's a nice idea to give the, "hey, do you know anybody living in XXplace that could host me?" a more structured approach. I've also crashed at a lot of places, friends, family, friends of family and so on and so forth. I find it is always an enriching and entertaining experience. Much better than staying at a hotel or so.
Interests
I'm an industrial designer and I focus my work around Waste. I would say sustainability is one of my burning topics, but since I work with it, I sometimes rather talk about other stuff on my free time. I love movies, music, ci-fi books, roleplaying games (dice and paper kind), tools machinery, philosophy and comic book.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I saw an electric storm at the break of dawn from a distance on a transatlantic flight. You could faintly make out the land line of the continent below. It was beautifull.
I was also awestruck by the surrealistic castle build by a Eddward James, in the middle of the Hastecan jungle in the small town of Xilitla. Concrete spiral staicases with no walls, that arrived to nothing, in the middle of the jungle. Absolutly mindblowing.
