HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING just want to say that this is an amazing project, and i hope more and more people can be involved in it COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE i agree it's a good way to know people and cultures, while spending less money on hotels - yes, spending less money while you are travelling is important, but i think you would agree with me what is more important is meeting local people in a casual situation!!

Movies - don't like commercial movies;enjoy Russian, French and Spanish films, A Home at the End of the World, The Garden State, Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, The Edukators, In the mood for Love, Brokeback Mountain, The Hours, Motorcycle diaries, The Lives of others, Dreamers, English Patient, Almodovar books- some of my favorites are M.Cunningham, Edmund White, Paul Theroux, Naipaul, Pamuk, Coehlo, Lonely Planet..
