Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I don't know yet. I'm new here. I have to see how things work and then I'll decide. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Unfortunately one experience only and a bad one. A guy speaking fluent Dutch but pretending to be from Canada asked to stay. He locked himself into his room with some pot and the tv and only came out to eat. We had to ask him to leave. I think he'd still be here, otherwise.
Music, Movies, and Books
Books (favourite authors): Murakami, Rushdie, Woolf, Auster. Recent very good reads include "Life of Pi", "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close", "Kafka on the Shore" and "The Wind Up Bird Chronicle". Music: Peter Gabriel, k's Choice, Sara Bettens, Crowded House, Mozart's Requiem, Arvo Pรคrt, Faurรฉ's Requiem, ... Movies: "Kingdom of Heaven", "Gladiator", "Babel", "The Last Samurai", "Equilibrium", "V for Vendetta" (stupid title, great movie)
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Living.
Teach, Learn, Share
A while ago I set up a site and a forum for Syrian students of English literature to help them improve their practical language skills. It's meant for Syrians because I know of bit of the problems they face, but it is open for everyone. http://www.englishsite.edulogos.be http://www.englishforum.edulogos.be The site should soon (after April 20th) have links to free resources on the net.
