About Me

- I'm open-minded, daring, independent and most importantly, fun! I enjoy life, appreciate living and try to make the best out of my everyday.
- I enjoy being around people with goals but don't take themselves too seriously.
- I'm curious about almost everything. Love to learn new things and explore the world.
- I smile often, travel far, and lift heavy:-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Like the concept and have had great experience.

Interests

I am an endorphine-holic, but I balance it out by being a true lover for good food and drinks. I enjoy strength training, hiking, running, yoga, crossfit, squash, Brasilian Jiujitsu, indoor climbing, etc etc.

Travelling and trying new things are essential for me. As they say, not all those who wander are lost.

One thing I love when I travel is to go to a Jazz pub/club, preferably with a live show.

I enjoy human contact - the warmth, the fear, the laughs. Lots of laughs.

- I like quirky funny movies/TV series: The flight of the conchords, What we do in the shadows, Peep Show, Black book, IT crowd, Hunt for the wilderpeople, Adventure time, Studio Ghibli, Taika Waititi, Wes anderson, etc.
- Also like standup, documentary. Drop a few names: Louis CK, Aziz Ansari, Anthony Jeselnik, Becky Donohue, etc.
- Don't read so many books as I wish but I don't miss a Haruki Murakami book and I quite enjoy the writing of a Norwegian author named Erlend Loe.
- Jazz, metal, hiphop, indie
