I’m on sabbatical, enjoying some free time until I decide what comes next.

Things I enjoy doing include but are not limited to: dining out / eating street food, watching movies, visiting art, exhibitions and museums, making new friends, exploring the city (currently Bangkok).

I also like going to new jazz bars or anywhere that has pleasant background music where you can have a conversation and chill.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people, make friends, go on adventures.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: listening to Salsa lately.

Movies: One of my childhood passions was to be a filmmaker, I think I’m gonna start doing that at some point. I admire many directors, for example James Cameron, Bong Joon Ho, Michael Haneke, Kyoshi Kurosawa, Dennis Villeneuve, David Fincher, Christopher Nolan, Steven Spielberg, Xavier Dolan and many more.

Books: I used to read a lot more, but the internet has decimated my attention span. But I usually read something related to business or something practical. I just finished:The disaster artist (Oh hi Mark!)
More recently stuff like Stephen King’s On Writing, The Creative Act, Zero To One, anything by Theodore Dalrymple, Thomas Sowell etc.. I also enjoy reading (auto)biographies and screenplays.

Teach, Learn, Share

I used to be a pretty good coder. Maybe I can help fix your printer or something.
