Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I moved to London half a year ago, and although I currently am not able to host anyone (I am renting really tiny room), I am always open for meeting up for a cup of tea, museum tour or a walk in the City with London newcomers.
What I love about Couchsurfing is of course people and the energy they bring into my life.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
I love jazz and classical music. On rainy mornings I like to listen Alt-J, Benjamine Clementine or Chet Faker.
I appreciate all other genres, as long they can surprise me ;)
I used to run a music blog, which was a lot of fun, but now I am too busy to keep it rolling.
Books:
Recently I focus more on reportage literature. Literature icon: Ryszard Kapuscinski (check him out!).
Currently reading: Desert Queen about first British women spy in the Middle East ;)
Movies:
The film that recently moved me was Whale Rider. I
I love BBC documentary series Planet Earth.
I like movies from Wes Anderson, Woody Allen, Almodovar, Giuseppe Tornatore and many more...
