Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Meeting up for a chat or drink and showing folks around Mexico City, where my wife and I have living for the past three years. I produce a weekly listing of events for zingmagazine, so if you want to know what is going on in CDMX's arts and cultural scene, this is a great list to refer to.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Music, Movies, and Books

I tend to go through everything one writer or director or actor or musician has ever produced. From Vonnegut, to Ryuichi Sakamoto to Jean Luc Godard to Francios Truffant to Haruki Murakami to Hemingway to Tadanobu Asano to Shinya Shokudo to Agathe Christie's Poirot to GOT and so on. Yolanda and I's latest obsession has been Poirot before bed and cooking Tamagoyaki for breakfast.
