When I'm traveling I try to surf, because I think it´s the best way of experiencing a place and you do literally make friends all over the world. I'm looking forward to having my own place some time though so that I can repay the kindness and generosity I've been shown by my hosts. So far I've had great couchsurfing experiences in USA, Austria, Germany, Spain, Italy, Russia :)

Books which I can learn something from. I like music where the person who has made it has talent. Not banal electronic beats... I do enjoy a bit of classical music from time to time though will happily listen to anything and I can sing along to.
