ABOUT ME

2017:
I'm planning a return to Georgia after finishing (pretty much) my second degree in physics. I've developed a great love for the subject, as well as mathematics, but can't wait to be on the road again with my guitar, tent, and bike.

Over the past couple of years I've had some wonderful cycling adventures in the Balkans. Bosnia and Montenegro are two of the most beautiful countries I have visited in Europe and were wonderfully welcoming.

2012:
This year I cycled to western asia and back to north western europe. I love music of various genres, have studied philosophy, shall study physics and enjoy farming. That's not to mention photography, painting and poetry.
Usually I'm rather talkative, sarcastic, and find most peoples company a pleasure.
I had an amazing adventure having recorded in a studio in Budapest, have a nosy at my music, musings, and photography on www.fluxoflife.com

I cycle everywhere, there is a wonderful sense of freedom crossing borders and wild camping under your own steam.

PHILOSOPHY

Meaning comes from experience, knowledge and activity. Enrich your life by your experiences! Both mental and sensual.

Music and cycling nurtures my happiness.

Accept that the darker times in life are required to truly see and acknowledge beauty.

Life isn't necessarily good, wonderful or special, so when it is, it is to be appreciated.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hosted as much as possible while I lived in Antwerp and hope to again while in Amsterdam.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I usually camp but I stayed in Krakow, Copenhagen and Stockholm with hosts. Truly wonderful people whos acquaintance was completely dependent upon couchsurfing.

Since I have couchsurfed in Istanbul, Cappadocia and Ezerum.

Interests

I play guitar and sing. I play a little piano, drums and sitar. I have a number of music projects that i'm working on in the UK.I love funk blues jazz rock, well most music.Thinking I'd also consider a past time and discussing things in depth. I'm seriously considering finishing my second degree in physics.Cycling and walking in the countryside are most appealing.I also love gardening, baking, cooking (especially asian cusines), photography, art, poetry, philosophy, animals/people, making anything i can (computers, furniture, bikes etc)...

Music, Movies, and Books

hehehe there's so much. On the music side of things I'm keen on everything from classical(Especially Rachmaninov and Stravinsky) to african funk, blues jazz. Unashamedly a big Hendrix fan too.

I love film noir and Polanski films, though I'm open minded. Especially films from 1971 for some reason.

The english romantic poets of the 18th and 19th century are appealing though I'm not reading so much at this time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

thinking, cycling without a final destination, seeing, feeling, picking up my guitar, laughing, crying, making things, experience the growth of plants.
