Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Big fan! I don't leave home without it. I travel a lot on business and like to meet locals wherever I go. Same when I go on vacation (which is far less than my biz travels). Also happy to host people in Zurich and show you around. Let me know what kind of things you are interested in, and I can tailor it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Quite a lot so far. always positive. somehow most couchsurfers seem to be a certain selection of people that share the same values, despite their vastly different experiences and backgrounds...

Interests

travelling (of course), spirituality, sports (fitness, jogging, hiking, badminton, skiing), music, culture, art (especially modern and contemporary, and new forms/representations...), good friends, nature, big cities, food!

Music, Movies, and Books

only some examples:
movies: "Fight club", "The cook, the thief, his wife and her lover", "Girl, interrupted", "Snatch", "Remains of the day"
music: very wide, from Led Zeppelin to Bach
books: Murakami, Midnight's Children, 1984

update: as I'm getting older, I'm really starting to appreciate poetry. Here is a beautiful example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eI5Gp3d7Z-4
