About Me

ABOUT ME

I usually like to be serious as little as possible, though I do like some serious & stimulating conversation now and then. I'm up for trying most new things. I really like beer, green tea, and walking around in nature.

PHILOSOPHY

Be pretty good at at least a few things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I couchsurfed with some really cool people in Europe. I'd like to meet more people and hopefully do some hosting once I get my own place again.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It's been really fun and interesting so far.

Interests

Music! Travelling (wow - really?), learning interesting things, camping and hiking, staying fit (or trying to), hanging out with friends and shooting the shit. Quite standard really. Also mixing music (glitch hop, dnb etc) and making beer.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: At the Drive In, Radiohead, Isis, Bonobo, QOTSA, Kyuss, Pink Floyd, & Tool, to name a few. Lots of electronic, particularly trip hop, glitch (hop), breakcore & ambient. Equally I enjoy jazz, metal and post-rock.
Movies: One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest, Fight Club, Sunshine, The Big Lebowski (All Coen Bro's movies actually), American Psycho. Cheesy action flicks from the 80's and 90's. Sci-Fi is a big yes.
Books: Something Happened by Joseph Heller. The Man in the High Castle. The Grapes of Wrath. Also Hunter S. Thompson. I need to read more actually.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walking on a glacier in NZ. Hiking Mt Rinjani in Lombok. Peering into a 6km wide crater at Mt Tambora, Sumbawa.
