HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I hosted in Seoul. We shall see if any couchsurfers come to stay with us in Changchun. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I have lovely memories of my host friends in India and Mexico.

So many. Foreign movies, documentaries, dramas, comedies, independent, or quirky. Brandon is really into studying film. I enjoy them, but often forget the names. Last good movie I watched: Ex Machina I am crazy about music. Addicted may not be too strong a word. I like all types of tunes from harder rock to folk, reggae, world music, funk, hip hop and electronic. I mostly read fiction. But I promised myself I'd finish People´s History of The United States, by Howard Zinn. Some of the authors I like: Victor Pelevin, Joy Williams, Haruki Murakami, John Updike, Margaret Atwood, Don Delillo, George Saunders, Nabokov, Iris Murdoch, David Mitchell, Arundhati Roy, Aravind Adiga, Dave Eggers, Salman Rushdie, George Orwell, Barbara Kingsolver, Kurt Vonnegut, Tom Robbins, Robert M Pirsig, Herman Hesse, Milan Kundera
