Couch surfing is, as many important scholars have suggested, one of the most baller fresh things on the planet. It's a better way to get to know a city than some impersonal romp about the touristy-zones, and we hope we can provide such a service service to our visitors.

Many many many. Top films for me include Monty Python's Holy Grail, Life is Beautiful, Princess Bride, Samsara, Cloud Atlas, and so on. Books include Kierkegaard's Works of Love, Poetry by Hafiz/Rumi, Chronicles of Narnia, The Other America by Michael Harrington, and many more - I love to read! Music is also variegated - and can go anywhere from Jim Croce to Rage Against the Machine, and currently I'm exploring more with folk/instrumental/and world music.
