Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m fond of travelling & sometimes the circumstances (e.g. being super broke) just do not allow me to spend lots of money on accomodation.

Also I’m a fan of adventures and never hesitate to meet new people from different cultural/lifestyle spheres.

Music, Movies, and Books

I’m a big fan of warehouse raves & quality techno and electronic body music, unconventipnal rap/hip hop like Bones or Death Grips but also calmer stuff such as Radiohead, Baths or Grizzly Bear ❤️

Concerning cinema, I’m a super picky person but generally love Jim Jarmusch movies for the special kind of humour & atmosphere, old movies starring young Dustin Hoffman and movies by brothers Ethan and Joel Coen just for their intrinsic absurdity.

I find it fairly difficult to read normal books as my life has been overloaded with academic articles and books on history ever since my university life begun. However, my fav books include works by Kurt Vonnegut, Philip K. Dick, Hermann Hesse, Chuck Palahniuk and many more.
