Overview
About Me
Just finished a phd in physics in Southampton University (which has proven as expected harder than planned). I live in a nice flat pretty close to the center (James Weld Close), you're welcome to crash!
PS: Pardon the low response rate, my phd seriously sucked in all my time for the past year or so... I'm a free man now!!

Music, Movies, and Books
Books
Joseph Conrad, Jonathan Coe, Jack Kerouac, Lao She, Joseph Boyden and plenty of other books that fills my shelves...
Music
Animal Collective, Arcade Fire, The Holydrug Couple, Architecture in Helsinki, Beirut, Kikagaku Moyo and other weird Japanese jam bands, old hippie stuff... pretty open minded.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Playing double ping pong with Bill Murray and Jim Jarmusch at a festival, meeting a living Buddha in the mountains of Western China, ridding elephants at dawn to meet Rhinos in India, illegally crossing the Indo-Nepalese border by hiding in traffic (twice on the same day), living off a VW bus for two weeks in Eugene Oregon while learning the art of pottery (and smoking a fair amount of weed)...

Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read.
