About Me

Current thought: There is no mistake

ABOUT ME

traditional eight fingered two thumbed kinda guy

Aims in life;

Stare into an active volcano

To live in and understand the desert.

Walk on stilts with confidence

To learn how to ride a horse.

To transform into a seal on my human death

PHILOSOPHY

be surprised

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

spreading adventure in the global search for new experience and personal revolution;

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While great so far, I've had a few surfers be a wee bit immature and though I may enjoy dressing up in gingham aprons, brandishing cooking tongs with my hair in a bun, I aint your mother, nor your daddy for that matter... actually if we were related you wouldn't be 'requesting' so much as 'demanding' - so if you're reading this there's a more than likely chance we're not related... now where did that coffee go...

Music, Movies, and Books

Having seen so many films ....aahhhh... I'd have to say I saw a Japanese magazine of "Betty Blue" which reminded me of how perfect that movie was. I had to buy it. Also if you happen upon a Czech film called "Zelary" then you have a work of genius in your hands. "Zentropa", "Being John Malkovic", "Apocalypse Now", "Napolean Dynamite" . "2046" - WATCH IT - pure brillance - where do i stop..

Count of Monte Cristo, Immortality [Kundera], The Godfather, The Ground beneath her feet, Island of the Day Before,

Music - too many to name, so the latest bands on my playlist are; Kraftwerk [always], Cat Power, Antony and The Johnsons, Stereo Total - check them out!!!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Flew through a storm in an airplane to find a beaming sun above the clouds.
