Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I suppose it would be easier to explain why not. The whole idea sounds just brilliant to me. Besides, grassroots initiatives, direct contacts and cross-cultural references are part of my philosophy. And hey - it's just as easy as it gets!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sky diving

Teach, Learn, Share

"Think for yourself and question authority. Throughout human history, as our species has faced the frightening, terrorizing fact that we do not know who we are, or where we are going in this ocean of chaos, it has been the authorities — the political, the religious, the educational authorities — who attempted to comfort us by giving us order, rules, regulations, informing — forming in our minds — their view of reality. To think for yourself you must question authority and learn how to put yourself in a state of vulnerable open-mindedness, chaotic, confused vulnerability to inform yourself" (Timothy Leary)
