Since I have studied human history for quite some time now. I am dedicated to not make the same mistakes of the past. All existing life on this planet is ending 1 minute at the time and you better make the best of life before its too late.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I joined this project because it is a great opportunity to meet some local people while traveling. I think it is a great concept and hope that I will have some good experiences with it.
I do have some general requirements which you must meet in order to surf my couch.
1) Your must be speaking English fluently, being able to understand and reply to everything I say. ( I take this point VERY seriously so if you know for a fact that you are having a hard time understanding standard English, don't bother to read any further)
2) You must convince me that you are not just looking to save some money and taking advantage of my hospitality by including a detailed description of your experiences, reasons and ambitions of using couchsurfing.
3) You must have a detailed couchsurfing profile WITH positive REFERENCES, A PHOTO OF YOURSELF and be a verified member.
Failures to comply with these 3 simple rules will result in immidiate decline of your request.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've helped a few foreign students by hosting them until they found decent accomodation which have been an amasing experience.
Interests
My interest are wide-spread. I enjoy reading and writing novels and poetry. Other than that i enjoy computer games, all types of sports and activities. I am a very social guy and like to be around people all the time.

Music, Movies, and Books
I am generally thrilled about movies that makes you think. Complicated interlocking plots and stories are my favorites. As goes for music, I like jazz, blues, classic, Hip-hop, Rock, soul and funk. I read a lot of books. I am very fond of beat litterature, music and art. I also have a passion for hip-hop culture and rap music.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I think the most amazing thing I have ever seen in my lifetime was Rome. This city has so much aura and contains so much glory that it blew me off my feet.
Teach, Learn, Share
I have a profound knowledge of the old feudal system in Europe and how we gained our individual freedom during the enlightement period should you be interested in that or other historical knowledge. What I am most passionate about and have spent a huge amount of time studying is American economic, social and foreign policy in the framework of globalization.
