ABOUT ME

Sweet guy, likes to debate and learn from others.

PHILOSOPHY

Smile, it WILL make it better

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

After several years of hosting and only a partial surf I have come to the conclusion that I like hosting much better than being hosted. For some reason I just take more pleasure in being the host and having people have a good time, rather than be at the mercy of others xD

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The most memorable must be when an american rock band surfted my couches for 4 days and I subsequently went with them on a roadtrip to Sweden for further concerts!

Interests

basket ball, boxing, computer games, computer applications for Internet usage, Online communities, international politics, russian and french language and culture

Music, Movies, and Books

George R.R. Martin is currently writing a series in which I am engrossed

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Learned french and russian, the latter still needs work though

Teach, Learn, Share
