Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I travel a lot to do photo projects, and I always try to stay at locals.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've slept at many couches (and floors) in my life - with CS the couches are now organized and stay in touch.
Interests
I have a weakness for photography and design. I love magazines, books, new places and such.
If you want to know more about what kind of photography I'm interested in take a look at this blog I edit with my boyfriend letselopetoday.tumblr.com.

Music, Movies, and Books
I like Krzysztof Kieslowski's cinematographer and dogma movies in general.
I like Tom Waits, Koop and Coco Rosie
I like everything by Kundera and Murakami. The Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino. A little Robbe-Grillet as well.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Being a photographer I tend to end up in strange, amazing situations quite a lot. I've been questioned by Hezbollah, I've photographed M.I.A. in front of 80.000 people, I've been tear gassed by the Muslim Brotherhood in Cairo and I've spent a month driving around Cuba just to mention some.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you:
- The alphabet in sign language.
- Basic camera settings.
- How to write your name in Arabic.
(Well, would have made a long list, but suddenly can't think of anything useful. I have a typical journalist-mind. I know a little about a lot.)
