About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Thinking

ABOUT ME

I quit my job(again), because after 2 years it extremely bored me.
Currently I travelling through South America, thinking about what I want to do in the future. Sometimes I feel this yearning for simpler life, with less time spend online and no TV. I am looking for a place with a blue sky and where I can see lots of stars at night. I have a sense of humor, although it is sometimes hard to understand. I try to see life as an adventure. I love long conversation which go beyond the normal small talk.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a journey; don't compromise.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Good question, I hope to be able to give back when I settle down somewhere (temporarily or for ever).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None, but I am looking forward to it.

Interests

I love good food, the sea and a blue sky.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books:
N.P. by Banana Yoshimoto
The History of Work by Richard Donkin
-> I like because the author questions things that western society seems to take for granted.
Faust (part 1) by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
-> Kind of ancient, but still very cool!

Movies etc.:
Incautos
-> excellent movie with lots of surprises
Samurai Champloo
-> nice anime series, cool hip hop sound track

Music:
I like Hiromitsu Agatsuma, Fritz Kalkbrenner. Organic Healing Sound by Pedro Collares is nice, too.
