About Me
ABOUT ME
Everyone here is open-minded, I am too! Also well-travelled, generally thoughtful, interested in almost anything and most of the times equipped with a contemporary sense of humor. I'm also lazy, so please drag me out to see and do things! Much appreciated :)
PHILOSOPHY
Good times are killing me.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Though very grateful of my CS career, I feel like my CS days are over. I don't think a couch has ever been an adequate place to sleep, and all the random people on CS meet-ups were few too many.
Interests
Movies - Alternative Music - American TV shows - to the level of being addicted. Eating while watching stuff is probably among my favorite all-time activities.
Interested in economic and social topics, architecture and issues of Globalization. Also have a soft spot for design hotels, I have left quite some money there.
I swimma lot, do occasional (kite-)surfing, not really good in either of that.
Music, Movies, and Books
I love watching _mainstream_ movies - it's great cinematography, plot twists, innovative stories, and sometimes special effects that I aprreciate most in filmmaking.
Movies are important - you have not lived until you have seen:
Inception, Star Trek, The Dark Knight. Other all time favorites include Transformers, The Life Aquatic, Fight Club, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Armageddon, Minority Report, The 5th Element, and The Prestige.
Birdman fascinated me most recently.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I lived in Asia for 4 years, these have been the better years of my life. Not going back.
Some highlights from Asia:
- The Park Hyatt in Shanghai
- Playing Soccer at Dawn at Thong Nai Pan Beach Thailand
- Dubai has the best water parks
- Kayaking Koh Phi Phi Island Thailand
- River Tubing in Vang Vieng - RIP
