About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to finish my diploma!

ABOUT ME

well, i am currently studying to be a violinmaker, which has been my dream ever since i was a young whipper-snapper. i am also passionate about the outdoors and simple living, and hope one day to integrate these things to make my life complete!

PHILOSOPHY

still searching...
capialism is a cancerous growth, and a religion in which far too many people have a blind faith. question it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

my comfy fold-out couch is beckoning lovely couch surfers to come and stay, and i am keen to get out surfing too! dreams manifest in reality - perpetuate the surfing dream!

Interests

music - i play cello
cooking
making things - crochet, knitting, furniture, musical instruments, jams and preserves... fun, games!
being outdoors, especially in the sun: swimming, walking, snorkeling, running, playing ultimate disc, lazing at the beach... any other ideas?

Music, Movies, and Books

for music, all that is guitar/vocal at the moment: nick drake, nick cave, jeff buckley, cat power, ani di franco, leonard cohen, martin simpson... i like jazz, classical, electro... i'm pretty open minded really...
for books, the collective literary works of the beat generation, narcissus and goldmund,the long walk... i'd like to read more philosophy
and for films, i once saw a film called sharman that has stuck with me ever since but i have never found again. he died with a felafel in his hands. dead man walking.
