About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Stop getting trampled by my future... and actually start planning it.

ABOUT ME

If i had the money i would be wandering on this earth to the end of my days. I rather go take a look, very likely get lost on the way, and then reach my own understanding.
The world is a bigger place than sometimes I think it is, there will never be enough time, or money, or holiday time... there will be responsibilities, debts and fears... up to you if you want to stay only "there"

I enjoy what I do, or I really try... if i don't.. well, then I have a problem, and then I have to get a solution.

I think, or at least I would like to think I think... and enjoy people who think for themselves... Books, music, movies, argumentative discussions, we see the world in our image and some times is the best way to understand others.

Not a really good cook, but on behalf of my cooking skills, i would say experimental, even if experimentation has been greatly left behind lately.

I struggle with directions... I apologize in advance.

Also for the over-use of suspension ellipsis...

PHILOSOPHY

you are owner of your thoughts but slave to your own words... but i can't really keep my mouth shout all the time.

curiosity might have tried to kill the cat... but it was worth the chase.

Prefiero volar en pedazos antes que atarme a la tierra por miedo a volar...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to... I need to start again... I love the idea, and I hosted and was graciously hosted before. I just need to get going again.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The people you get to spend a while with...randomly, a place in the middle of nowhere; otherwise you would have never met... is so random... and yet you get to learn, to wonder, get curious.

Interests

The common places of books and movies, traveling, gaming, discusing ideas. Video art and photo.
And long time love lost and found again, rinse and repeat: architecture.
Music, random music!

Music, Movies, and Books

Out of lately, Ray Loriga, Ryu Murakami, Yukio Mishima, Banana Yoshimoto.
Dolls, Hana-bi, lost in translation, in the mood for love.
And yes, I know, and I don't care: Game of Thrones (the books)
Random music!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Finished a 10k run on 1.22' with no training at all, just because someone told me I could not do it... find your motivator and go!

Wish it was that easy for everything else, but i am working on it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share a dozen favorite walks, great after hours food, crazy conversations and obscure bars.
