I'm a creative and open-minden person. I like to discover new corners of the multiverse and that includes the perspective of others and my own internal experience of pretty much everything. Travel as well, of course.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

To me this is new and it's exciting. It may be a start, I shall see. Right now it promises to be a way for me to discover places and meet new people.

Intereses

Science fiction stories (especially short stories), tennis (from John McEnroe's lefty serve to Federer's flick backhand), biking (I prefer uphill, actually), reading and writing books (academic and fiction, too), photography (without overcontemplating what one does as part of it), movies (from clever drama to funny nonsense). And bears. And beers, too.

And whatever else that people find interesting including their reasons for finding those things interesting.

Música, películas y libros

J G Ballard and Philip K Dick are way too cool not to mention them specifically when it comes to sci-fi literature.

Dersu Uzala (directed by Akira Kurosawa, 1975) was one of the first movies that totally captivated my attention, at a very young age. But then so did Transformers, too, even though by the time that came I grew up or what.

Recently I've watched House MD and CSI: Miami a lot. And I thought "Nightcrawler" was a hell of a movie, with Jake Gyllenhaal and Rene Russo.

This is all random stuff though. There really are too many movies and books I like, or think much of (a better way of putting it), for it to make sense to start listing them here.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I hit a tweener for a winner at a tennis tournament when I was 18. I keep playing video of it in my head (sadly, the only recording available).

Enseña, aprende, comparte

"Matters of great concern should be treated lightly. Matters of small concern should be treated seriously."

I think this sounds really cool. And I'm thinking about exactly how this is supposed to make sense in life since a very long time now. I haven't quite made up my mind about it.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

Besides some good Tokaj wine from Hungary and my expertise in obscure social science? :)
The purest intellectual pleasure of having fun hanging out.
