Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
My mission in few words is to go to England and find a job I can put up with and start my life there :)
ABOUT ME
I'm a pretty shy person. I like to meet people, and I feel i'm an interesting person to be met as well. I'm a bit afraid of crowded places and new experiences, and I'm trying to start fighting that by accomplishing my Mission (read above), hopefully with a bit of help from someone else, since I'm not completely sure I can handle it all by myself :\ I don't drink anymore or do any drugs but I have nothing at all against people who do. I'm very curious about psychological stuff, meaning I love trying to understand how people think. I love to just sit around doing nothing or reading a book.
PHILOSOPHY
Well, I love music as you may have noticed, but I don't live my life based on that. I'm not sure where I'm going, but I think I'm trying to find my place in this world, somewhere I can live and feel I belong there, that's what makes me move. As for my philosophy, I always try to be fair and honest with everyone, I think that's what's missing the most in this world: fairness.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm not in a position where I can make any contribution yet, since I still live with my parents and they wouldn't be very fond of having someone they don't know to sleep over.. But once I'm all settled out by myself, I'm, at least, going to help anyone as much as I believe I'm going to be helped in my journey, either that person is a member of this community or not :) But of course, if u come somewhere near the place I'm staying at the moment, I don't mind showing you around :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
None, at the moment
Interests
Literature, cinema, music (any kind of music), TV series (ie. Big Bang Theory, HouseMD, How I Met Your Mother, Skins), many forms of art can grab my attention, interesting conversations about almost anything

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: blues, classical, rock, metal, whatever, I listen to whatever it's on, some stuff I like more than other obviously, but there's only a few I don't like at all. I really love Pink Floyd, Dire Straits, Led Zeppelin, Doors, Queens of the Stone age... and many more. Movies: I like mostly comedies to be honest, but I enjoy watching any movie. I really liked, just to name a few, Fight Club, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, August Rush, etc. Books: anything that makes me think, by authors I can name, for instance, George Orwell, Oscar Wilde, Dostoievsky, Kafka, Chuck Palahniuk, etc.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Done:
- Playing my bass in a private party for a telecomunications company.
- Going through a couple of schools teaching 6 and 7 years old kids how to enjoy music, showing videos (they laughed their asses off watching Ray Charles playing the piano for some reason) and letting them try a couple of instruments - one of them was eating a banana right before playing my harmonica, you can imagine the results..
Seen(and heard): Isaac Albeniz - Asturias (check youtube) ;)
Teach, Learn, Share
I probably could teach you the basics of playing a guitar or drums, but I don't have that much knowledge myself. I know a bit about computers, but mostly boring stuff (for me at least). I think the best way I could teach you anything would be to try and make you think of subjects you've never thought about thinking before. I enjoy having phylosophical conversations that makes myself and other people think. Wondering, brainstorming, making hypothesis, questioning even if an answer isn't actually possible. And I wouldn't mind learning whatever anyone wishes to teach me, I guess :)
