I moved to Amsterdam for a Software Engineering job a couple of years ago and is interested in meeting and connecting with as many people as possible! I enjoy artsy foreign movies, so you better prepare a couple of suggestions for movies from your country to share with me ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy meeting people with different cultural backgrounds than mine, and Couchsurfing is the best way to do so!

Interests

If you're into coffee, movies and/or history and can keep talking about them for hours, we will sure get along :)

I can recommend or take you to some of the best coffee places in Amsterdam that I have discovered along the way while exploring the city.

• coffee
• football
• laughing
• meeting new people
• long walks
• international movies

Music, Movies, and Books

I love almost all movies by these directors: Stanley Kubrick, Lars von Trier, Woody Allen, Martin Scorsese, Ingmar Bergman, Akira Kurosawa, Quentin Tarantino. I like to watch movies from all over the world, most probably I watched at least a movie or 2 from your country already, however I would be grateful if you could recommend other movies! Oh btw, for some weird reason I hate TV series! The only one I managed to watch fully was Breaking Bad, other than that I usually lose interest after a couple of episodes in the first season.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Few days ago, I rated my 1111th movie on IMDb! To celebrate the milestone, nerdy me downloaded the list and wrote a script to generate some statistics from the list, here are some of the major findings:
* Watched total of 131334 minutes of movies (equal to 2188.9 hours, or 91.2 days)
* Top 5 directors in terms of number of movies watched:
* Woody Allen: 28
* Martin Scorsese: 15
* Steven Speilberg: 15
* Stanley Kubrick: 11
* Ridley Scott: 10 (That came as a surprise to me!)
* Oldest movie I rated is: The General - by Buster Keaton in 1926 (didn't like it that much)
* Longest title of movie: "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex * But Were Afraid to Ask"
* Shortest title of movie: "M"
