Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In June 2008 I made my first CouchSurfing Experience as a guest when I visited Sicily. Since then I hosted every summer guests from all over the world. I love it.

Interests

When I was twenty I wanted to see part of the world. I travelled the Greek islands, Norway, Turkey (central and the north-east), Syria-Jordan, Kenya-Tanzania-Burundi, Tunesia, Georgia (ex Sovjet-Union). I met some beautiful and interesting people. When I was thirty I became interested in travelling inside: meditation, bodywork like rebirthing, bio-energetic ... I met some very beautiful and interesting people. Now that I am in my forties, I try to bring it all together, travelling inside and outside, enjoying the experience of life.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to read. Mostly fiction. My latest discovery is the Japanese writer Haruku Murakami. I have enjoyed 'Norwegian Wood' and 'Kafka on the beach' a lot. I also appreciate the Dutch writer Conny Palmen, the novels and travel journeys of Alexandra David-Neel, who travelled Tibet at the beginning of the 20th century, Thomas Mann's 'The wholy sinner' and 'Mémoires d'Hadrien' from Marguerite Yourcenar.
So far the serious literature. I also like to read more popular books, as long as the story is intrigues me. And I like comic books!
Some music I enjoyed lately: Sigur Ross, Antony and the Johnsons, Cowboy Junkies, Indian classical instrumental music. At the moment I am fascined by a touching cover of 'One' from U2 by Johnny Cash on his album Solitary Man.
