About Me

A big nerd. Love to meet new people and exchange ideas. Takes me one hour in the morning to become dezombified. Love cats to death (literally - allergic, but still adore them). Can get overly enthusiastic about things. Clean, ordered, adaptible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a host, to help others in their travels. As a guest, to facilitate travels and discover new and exciting places. And always, to meet new people.

Interests

Hanging out with friends, reading books (SF&F) and comics (bandes desinees, mangas), playing games (RPG, board, computer), watching TV shows, painting miniatures...

Music, Movies, and Books

I've grown up gobbling every science fiction and fantasy book or almanach available, and that love never left me. It also carried over to TV shows.

Lately, quite a bit of post-rock. In general, metal (and its many subgenres) is the main thing that I listen to, though I also like EBM, classical, and sometimes ethnic music. I've nothing against most other kinds of sounds, though rap-y and techno-y stuff is kinda not my thing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen the farthest object that is humanly possible to see with a naked eye, remains of 2000+ year old buildings, and tiny little beings that live inside each of us. And I tried making people happy and appreciated everywhere I went. Okay, that's four things.

Teach, Learn, Share

Mostly scientific knowledge - a smattering of neuroscience, physics, astronomy. Painting miniatures in a small amount.

I wanna know all about knots and sailing! Old wooden boats too! I wanna sail on an 18th century ship and explore the seas!

Barring that, I'll settle for seeing other star systems.

I do enjoy learing about anything new, no matter the subject.
