I stopped watching TV and following the news. A good history book or an intersting conversation is always a more worthwile use of my time.
I am looking for there conversations around here! :)

"To all of us the thought of heaven is dear--
Why not be sure of it and make it here?
No doubt there is a heaven yonder too,
But 'tis so far away--and you are near."
-- Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám (Le Gallienne)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling but I hate to be a tourist. More than beaches and monuments I love to meet new people. Though beaches and monuments are great too! :)
