Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

There's a couch in my studentroom in Leuven, Belgium on which you can sleep.

Literature, music; When awake, there HAS to be music at any given moment (!), fashion, culture.

Music, Movies, and Books

I regard my taste in music as being quite broad; It goes from Belle&Sebastion to the Rolling Stones and from Pink Floyd to David Bowie. (http://www.last.fm/user/JPtriepels)

I like all kinds of movies. Some evenings I might just enjoy Bridget Jones' Diary as a guilty pleasure, but I'm also into movies from Xavier Dolan.

What goes for my taste in music and movies, also goes for my taste in literature; I'm really into Russian literature but my heart lies with Milan Kundera and his most famous novel 'the unbearable lightness of being'. Gosh, just the title itself is beautifull!
