Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I´ve always been into different forms of social phenomenons in which money in general is not a currency. A big proportion of my life in Tartu for the last 8 years has been following this idea... And I love the communal feel in it. Couchsurfing is pretty much the same thing, but, jep, digital network based and on a much larger scale... So, I hope to encounter the same emotion when travelling.

Interests

Creating music, listening to music, writing about music, books, people, performances etc. Society as a whole, social sciences, thinking, running, reading, politics, media and journalism...
