About Me

Hi, I'm Paul! A spontaneous easy going guy currently travelling han solo style. Always open to share thoughts with interesting people and most of all, have fun.

I like many things like technology, economics, philiosophy etc since this all has to do with what i have been studying/working on for the past 8 years, design. Trust me, its that broad.

Apart from that i love good music, ranging from 80s rock to deephouse. I play guitar a little bit myself too, and sometimes a little ukelele.

I skateboarded when i was younger a lot, now i love snowboarding and occassionally i try to surf.

And aside of that im into the usual stuff, like movies, drinking beer and play counter strike.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

During my travels I realized meeting people with different backgrounds can be really intersting and sometimes even mind blowing. It's for me now one of the most important parts of travelling.

And I like kind of this way of internet bringing people together. Rather than most people say it makes us more anti social. So I want to try it out!

Music, Movies, and Books

Few of my alltime favorite music albums:
Ten by Pearl Jam, Achtung Baby by U2, new War on Drugs album, Jamie xx - in colour, Bruce Springsteen - born in the usa, atoms for peace. So a lot of different stuff.

Dont really have a favorite book, but i like fictional stuff.

Loads of good movies out there, but i like the Matrix most since it has a nice reflection to our current society.
