I am fascinated by subtleties.

PHILOSOPHY

"A lot of young people are somehow put off struggle and difficulty.
Boredom thresholds now because of the nature of entertainment,
people are adrenalin addicted and I think that one of the big
unspoken addictions in our society is adrenalin.
We are addicted to drama, everything has to be exciting, black and white. There's no middle ground, we're all being gradually pushed into this area where our attention span is that of a gnat.
Difficulty, learning a skill that might take 10 years over 10,000 hours is something that frightens to death, when in fact when you attain that it is probably the happiest most joyful thing you can do".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately I cannot offer room for couchsurfers at the moment, but I will one day.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Im new to couch surfing. I first discovered it in barcelona, when there was nowhere to stay. Until the beautiful people of the couch-surfing community took us under their wing. We made new friends and had a great time!

Interests

My favorite thing in the world is going to see live music. It doesn't matter what genre!
I spend a lot of time turning pieces of wood into instruments.
I like to eat and drink (who doesnt?). il never say no to something new.
