Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Pleasant experience in general, except that one time when I hosted someone who used me as his driver for a day and didn't know how to say "please" and "thanks". All I got in return was "Oh my God, I haven't taken even a single good photo today." Other than that, my experience in Couchsurfing has been great!

Music, Movies, and Books

Big fan of movies and books that are in first person male perspective (e.g. The Zahir, High Fidelity, Dear John, Little Manhattan, Tuesdays with Morrie, For One More Day)

I appeciate almost all genres of music -from classical to rock - the whole spectrum. I'm a big fan of U2 and The Killers. And oh, The Beatles and Elvis Presley.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walked the stretch of Avenida Atlantica in Copacabana wearing nothing but sunga (Brazilian trunks), just like what the cariocas (locals of Rio de Janeiro) do.
