About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Die with your boots on - Iron Maiden =)

ABOUT ME

It is hard for someone to describe himself. Well, I see my self as a positive person, which leads me to talk a lot. =) Enjoy lots of things from little undiscovered sometimes unnecessary knowledge to a great conversation with lots of laugh.

I don't believe in these little descriptions because it is the interaction between people that makes you decide if that person is worth while.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a very interesting place. One day it feels like you know it all, one day it doesn't. I can write lots of pages about life and how we, especially I interact with it. But at the end I think it all comes to a place where we all are merely observing what goes on. The goal is to make a difference somehow in this game of observation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like to host someone if I could. I am a newbie here but I'll do my best to collaborate. I just volunteered in some work, will see how that will turn out. =)

Interests

Hmm, there are a lot of subjects.

Learning is a big interest I guess, which leads to learn more in music, philosophy, politics, places, history and people. That will cover the basics.

If you insist, you can add technology and lots of stuff what make life, life.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: From heavy metal to blues, I like it all depending on my mood. Ethnic rhythms and interesting tunes attract me. Top names on my list are Tool, Foo Fighters, Queens of the Stone Age, Kultur Shock, Sting (with a star), Norah Jones, etc. Not much of a electronic music fan but a good beat might just move my butt a bit. =)

Movies: Nothing like a good movie, except a good theater. =) Top names: The Shawshank Redemption, Nightmare Before Christmas, Star Wars (can't help it)

Books: Can't decide poets or writers. I guess poets. Nazım Hikmet, Orhan Veli, Sunay Akın. Google them, you probably will find translations of their poems. Anne Rice, Neil Gaiman, Elif

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living is amazing enough. =)))

Traveled to Brasil. Lived there as an exchange student. That was amazing. Mostly because you are alone away from your family and not to forget that you are alone in Brazil. =)

Teach, Learn, Share

Learning is motto of my life, will teach as well. Just wait till I figure out what to write here =)
