Baby Pause. No traveling, hosting or exploring. Just baby stuff.

PHILOSOPHY

"Behold the hippopotamus!
We laugh at how he looks to us,
And yet in moments dank and grim,
I wonder how we look to him.
Peace, peace, thou hippopotamus!
We really look all right to us,
As you no doubt delight the eye
Of other hippopotami."
(Ogden Nash)

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can always share my experiences - top things to do in Bucharest and Romania or how to get around in Germany ;-)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I don't host or surf (usually), but I use Couchsurfing to find like-minded people around the world, to meet up when I visit a new city or country, or to ask questions about it. I am also happy to help people with any questions related to the places I used to live or the place I am currently living. I made some real good friendships which started here on CS.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I am a fan of indie music and I love listening to andhow.org, an independent radio station from New Zealand. I am also into rock music. And I love Chet Faker. Movies... some, but not many. I am more into watching shows. I am crazy about Dexter, Breaking Bad, Mad Men, The Americans, and so on. I like to buy books and read only half of them. I am crazy about Moshin Hamid. And Philip Roth. I really like all kind of ethnic writing. I enjoy progressive literature (Charlotte Roche for example), and some classics, although most of the time I have to force myself reading them.
