About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm searching the inner perfection. Not really an easy road.

ABOUT ME

I'm a almost normal employer with a lot of strange hobbies.
I like to travel with a motorbike (TDM 900) across Europe, I like to photograph the people and the places that I see.

PHILOSOPHY

Peace is always the right answer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosted and been hosted. CS It's a great experience!

Uh, after a lot of complains, I've changed my profile picture. I'm not scary as the old picture!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I think it's great, talk with a lot of different people with a lot of different reality and point of view, without moving from your home :)

And, also, travel in a place and confront yourself with guys who live in that place.

Interests

Photography, book (also comics), movies, medieval stuff (art of sword in detail), travel, music, motorbike.

I like: travels, books, movies, peace in the world, openminded and easygoing people, and original profiles in couchsurfing.
