Overview
About Me
Enough about me, what about you?
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I have organized couch surfing events for the past 3 years. Feel that its overall a good idea, where people can meet with others and exchange ideas. Meet new people and travel the world. Mark Twain wrote "Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry & narrow-mindedness." I hope he is right!
Interests
Interested in writing. My favorite writers often use a lot of wit and humour in their work - writers like Wilde & Joyce (who also happen to be Irish by chance).
I also like writers who have fun with words; where their use of rich and colorful language is also a pleasure to mouth and enjoyable to read aloud - Edgar Allan Poe, Beckett, Carroll and of course some of Shakespeare. When I write I try to keep it interesting for others, even if I have no interest myself. I play a lot of music, my favorite artists include John Lennon, some Dylan,
Jeff Buckley & Nina Simone (to name but a few).

Music, Movies, and Books
Favourite music (see above). Films Jaque Tati - Mon Oncle, probably. Books there are many but I have to say 'To Kill a Mockingbird' had a big effect on me and Harper Lee is writing a follow up so can't wait. The movie is quite good too.
