i'm based in Malta, have travelled quite a lot and hence have become flexible and adaptable.

physically, i'm not so flexible.

i do historical fencing. longsword is currently my favorite weapon. but know some rapier and sidesword as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Recommended years ago by friends, but now I'm giving it a try.

It is much more interesting to meet people when going to a new place. I suppose that when traveling in the usual style you have to be lucky to meet awesome people. Couch surfing should make meeting awesome people easy, right?

Interests

Art, comic books, graphic novels, video games, swords, martial arts, fencing, learning, internet governance and disruptive technologies (altho i'm not terribly technical myself), football, pretty much anything can catch my interest. interesting things are everywhere and largely a matter of perspective.
