CURRENT MISSION

To learn Swedish, and to make Sweden my own.

ABOUT ME

I'm a geek: into film, computers, comics, SF, you know, all the geek stuff.

Currently my main tech obsession is social networking. I see so much potential in it. It will change the world as we know it, and you can quote me on that.

I'm also very keen on how humans use stories to cope with the world.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm a gregarious pessimist.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've just moved to a new country, so I'm not really able to host or show people around, but I'm always up for making new friends.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My old flat in New Zealand used to host a lot of people. However, Joel Pauling was the one who organised all of it.

Interests

Films, novels, comics, writing, people.
Story, story, story, story. Our brains are hardwired to make our experiences into stories. This is what makes us unique and special as a species.

Films that are so bad they make me laugh
