About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be spontaneous every other Tuesday at 5PM.

ABOUT ME

I love the first 30 seconds of meeting someone new.
Suddenly, all your attention is drawn to this new person that wasn't there before, and it takes about that long to get a feel and know if there is friendship potential... Amazing, no? :)

Other then that I try to work as little as possible so I ave a lot of time to think about what I want to do with it.

PHILOSOPHY

I feel extremely lucky to have been born who I am. I mean I could have been born a one-legged blind water pumping leper, for example, which would have been not as nice.
And I feel that because this lucky event occurred it would be immoral and ungrateful of me to work too hard, stress out, or just waste time running around looking important. Instead I feel obliged to enjoy myself as much as I can.

Good words no? I wish I lived by them all the time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm starting to get the hang of it. I've surfed a few times and hosted some.
I also hitch-hike! And I take hitch-hikers whenever I can. I think hitch-hiking is very similar to couch surfing: Its much more than getting from A to B. It's a great opportunity to get to know people you would never meet or talk to otherwise. Mini-CS it is.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met the most amazing people in Finland. So unbelievably nice and hospitably. Took me for a weekend in a cottage deep in a snowy forest and cooked me cranberry pancakes for breakfast.

Interests

Improvisation theater. Dance. Meeting new people. Solving puzzles. Juggling, Cooking (even thought I'm not that good), Hearing/Telling stories. Mathematics, Moving. Photography. Day dreaming. Jazz (even though I can't play).
Talking about philosophy, People watching. Traveling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Accidentally convinced a random stranger that I was recruiting him for a secret agency. He completely fell for it.
