About Me

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To connect with locals wherever I go and to share memorable experiences in general

Interests

Music keeps me in the zone, I'll play along on a djembe or saxophone. I've attended music festivals and shows in all the countries I've been to.

Programming is what I do to earn a living, though currently I'm doing it without an incentive and out of interest.

I love to be in nature, be it camping on a trek, swimming in the oceans on a beach or wandering off into safe woods on a hill station.
I love adventures, and adventure sports. Skydiving was okay, I'd love to bungee instead, from the Macau or the LA thing, highest or the second basically. Still to explore caving, rafting and scuba and deep-sea diving.

Music, Movies, and Books

Long list in music... this might still be an appropriate descriptor - www.lastfm.com/user/hollowspace

Not much a reader, I like to watch movies with good acting, direction and story, not very picky of genres

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Had hash brownies while watching Sigur Ros and radiohead live

or maybe,

Sat in the front-most seat of Kingda Ka, which at that time was the fastest as well as the tallest roller coaster in the world :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I love sharing and discussing ideas, mine as well as others'. I can teach someone new to chess or dota2, or the few recipes I know. Can share trivia about music I like or sciences that interest me

What I Can Share with Hosts

Fun company, amusing trivia, some help in chores that might increase because of my stay, and we can keep in touch if it's a nice experience!

Belgium, France, India, Netherlands, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In
