About Me

I am very curious, open-minded and sometimes overthinking human. I don't like to take things and myself too seriously. I don't like to confine myself or others to what can be labeled as "normal", for "normal" can differ greatly from culture to culture and from person to person. I like to ask (and be asked) questions, talk about things I don't understand a try to believe six impossible things before breakfast. I like to explore and play.
I am introverted, I prefer to talk in smaller groups where I can connect rather than going to big parties. But I don't mind parties at all, as long as one can talk there :)
I am adventurous and I like to make my travel decisions without planning too much. I mostly travel to connect with people, experience culture and nature, rather than seeing a specific sight or attraction. Through people I love to learn about their culture and their way of life. I am fascinated by the differences and similarities of people. I like to learn new skills and gain new experience (either bad experience is still an experience). If sharing stories with strangers while watching the stars or playing music sounds good to you, then you're my kind of a person. I like to laugh, have "deep" talks, try to figure out the world and imagine a lot.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For fun and for cultural exchange.
I like to meet people that are open to other people and I find that couchsurfing is full these.

Interests

I am interested in many things, which is probably why I am not great in anything I do. :D But I try.
I love to try things I have never tried before, learn new skills and explore the world around me and learn about it. I love learning about interests of others and sharing mine. I am always interested in deep conversations and philosophy exchange.
Currently I am interested in juggling. :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Music I love very much. I love listening to albums from start to finish. I love listening to people play and sing. I like playing guitar but I am not good enough to play with others yet. And a bit shy. I would love to learn the drums. I am enthusiastic about vinyl records - I like the whole ritual about them. Especially when the music on them is interesting enough for me so that I can just lay down, close my eyes and listen.

I do love movies, but I am a bit picky about the ones I like to watch. I prefer to not watch a movie to watching a movie I am not interested in. I love to talk about them though.

Teach, Learn, Share

Juggling - I can try to teach you what I know and I am always keen to learn more.
I am quite good with computers (I used to be a computer programmer) so if you have some troubles there I might be able to help out.
Currently I am interested in learning acro yoga, drums and leaning about herbs and mushrooms. And many more things I guess :D
