About Me

I guess this is one of the trickiest questions ever, to talk about yourself, because it does not matter how good you think you are, people's judgment still matter in one way or another, even though caring what people have to say about you is a slippery slop that might lead you into changing who you are just for the sake of people, and that is one of the deadliest mistakes. :)

All in all, I am open-minded, flexible, easy going, and hard to convince sometimes :)

I like experimenting and experiencing all the new things within reach, for that enriches our personalities and exposes us to new experiences and cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because couchsurfing has changed my life and a couple of others, with all the meaning that the word change can deliver, maybe we get to talk about it when we meet :)

I do not currently have my own place, so I cannot host people, but I would love to meet up if your in town. I'd rather spend sometime with new people, learn something or two from them and positively influence each other that spend the night in a hotel and just sleep. We have all eternity to sleep, right? ;)

Interests

I am quite interested in other cultures and viewpoints, as long as it is open to constructive discussion, because no sane one would say no to a good time with a nice company who has something to share. Just like the P2P motto says; sharing is caring :) and that extends to not only sharing your couch with others, but sharing knowledge and experience.

My favorite three movies respectively are:
Mr. Nobody
Twice Born
Interstellar

Among the many bands/singers I like, Loreena McKennitt, Estatic Fear, Led Zeppelin, Savatage, Orphaned Land, Twisted Sister, Uaral, Keane, Dio, Heaven & Hell, Ed Sheeran, Dhafer Youssef, Dream Theater...
