CURRENT MISSION

I want to be a wise and benevolent dictator of a small and scenic country.

ABOUT ME

Hello! I am a person from New Zealand and I am currently travelling around North America in an old red van. Originally here for the snow, I am now enjoying the sun and learning how to fly kites. I studied architecture back home and hope to find some work in this field on this continent at some stage.

I think I am a pretty friendly and pretty relaxed person, and I like meeting interesting people and getting to know and understand new places.

PHILOSOPHY

The everyday philosophy of 'be excellent to each other' is I think a pretty solid way to lives ones life. On a more existential level, that would require a beer and a larger box than I have to write in here...

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Musik, Filme und Bücher

Currently reading Aldous Huxley's Doors of Perception and Richard Dawkins' The Ancestors tale.

I like almost all types of music, with the possible exception of hard house and some of the more depressing forms of country music. But I especially like Indie/electro, classical, atmospheric electronic, d'nb, blue grass and psychedelic lounge.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I could possibly write Sanskrit when I was two years old.
