About Me

I treasure good friendships. I love to laugh, as you'll notice from all the wrinkles around my eyes. I prefer capturing the good moments in life with my mind, rather than my camera. There are times when I can be quite serious, but in general I don't take life too seriously. I am positive and cheerful, except for the 5 minutes I'm negative if something serious went wrong, but after that, I'll have a laugh and see the good in the bad.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have a comfy couch(and a bed or two) to offer to couch surfers and would love to meet some new people to share and create new experiences with.

Interests

As I am a Jack-of-all-trades basically, there is no particular "interest" that stands out for me. My interests stretches quite wide, but includes the following:
People, human behaviour, good wine, good food, different cultures, religions and beliefs, cars, motorbikes, science, history, cycling, clubbing, socialising with friends and soon to be friends...

  • dining
  • wine
  • clubbing
  • reading
  • cars
  • cycling
  • history
  • religion
  • science
  • pizza
  • pasta

Music, Movies, and Books

If the music is good, I listen to it. I am not really one to always know every song and artist, and always have the latest music. I don't find my identity in music, but I do appreciate good music, be it The Beatles, Queen, Bach or Armin van Buuren. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Drove a Ferrari in Modena in Italy... As a passionate car lover, it was a really amazing experience. It was all about the exhilarating driving experience, the power, the sound, the speed, my heartbeat.

Teach, Learn, Share

Life is too short for bad wine.
Those who stand for nothing, falls for anything.
