Get to know the locals experience on my travels plus see if I can offer anything at the end of the world?
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My first real couchsurfing experience was in South Korea, where I stayed with Paul from NZ and Patrick from Canada and had an awesome time!
Interests
Outdoors (snowboarding, kite surfing, rafting, kayaking, snorkeling, bush-walking / mountaineering, rock climbing, offroad biking and troopy cruising, camping and all that) socializing, dancing like some manikin on high voltage strings, in general being open about challenges in life and facing new insights...

Music, Movies, and Books
Not enough unfortunalty, started reading the autobiography of James Lovelock (Gaia Theory) who propesed the hypothysis of Planet Earth being a self regulating organisms, based on various oceanic and atmospheric measuremnts... very interesting and transferable to so many parts in life, from molecular interactions to cosmic occurances.Not the most up-to-date on music, enjoy some of the popular classics like Queen, lots of stuff from the 80's and before as well as some electronic and folky music. Rammstein being one of my favourite bands.Oh and yes I love movies, particular with some deeper meaning, may it be the Matrix or Life is Beautiful, Starwars (original) or arthouse movies, I can even enjoy the odd tasteful american comedy (mean girls).
