Music, Movies, and Books
I don't like watching movies, I just love watching life. I only listen to quality music. Good music is good music, it doesn't have to belong to any genre.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I hitchhiked for a month in Afghanistan, which I had never known before. I didn't know couchsurfing at that time, I'm not sure they knew either :) I stayed in the houses of people I didn't know, sometimes I slept under a tree in the steppe. I listened to the epics of the bards who continued the thousands of years old epic tradition. I accompanied their songs. I listened to the stories of prisoners who escaped from the hands of the Taliban. But most importantly, I always met good people. This has always been what keeps my wandering spirit alive. I saw people looking with hope even in the middle of the war. I travel this world to meet good people and share their stories. This is my biggest motivation.
