PHILOSOPHY

I enjoy meeting people who like to communicate, that is listen and talk, not only talk. The ancient philosopher Heraklit said, that our task in life is to understand it: and the best way is dialogue, where we can share our logos (speech-based mind). ;)
I have friends all over the world. I want to learn about us humans on this planet ;), I want to dive in other cultures and countries as well as show my life and city to others.
That is for me becoming rich. Rich with friends and experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well... hosting and being hosted...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been participating since January 2008. I have been hosted in Brussels, Rome, Naples, Mallorca.

I have hosted so far around 30 times, many nations, many cultures, very cool experiences so far!

Interests

I'm interested in history, cultural backgrounds, Sightseeing. I read a lot and I like good movies, mainly older ones. I like being in the nature walking, cycling, swimming, sailing or just sitting or lying in the sun. And I like going out to places where there are good vibes and where the music is good, but not too loud for conversation.
And I love animals. I am longing for the time when I will have a dog and cat again!!!!
And I love cooking!

Music: Manu Chao, Jack Johnson, Radiohead, Xavier Rudd, Amadou & Mariam, Mariah Mena, Mattafix, Gnarls Barkley, etc. etc. etc.
Books: Eureka Street, catcher in the rye, the spy who came in from the cold, the great gatsby, after the hole, all of Philip Roth, Jostein Gaarder, Martin Suter (swiss), Paolo Coelho, Umberto Eco, Haruki Murakami, etc.
