我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I used to be heavy user of Couchsurfing and Hospitality Club in times when I was a semi-professional traveler.
I think I have above average luck with finding cool people on Couchsurfing :) With some I'm still in touch years later, despite being on different ends of world.

兴趣

Collecting stories, talking and reading. Humans are probably the most interesting thing in this planet, can't say for other planets.

Thinking, running, lone mountaniering, having deep conversations (I'm famous as an expert in 15-second small talk), enjoying videogames and cyberculture.
And books, books especially. The only way to befriend or learn something from people long gone or far away.

音乐、电影和书籍

Films - weird, black-white or "classic".
Books, good ones. Read my first longer book when I was 6, can't stop ever since. From business-related stuff, ancient eposes, fantasy (Diune!) to social science and microhistory.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情
