I'm a travelling programmer - I can work from anywhere in the world as long as I have a bit of Internet.

I love meditation and the outdoors. I have a degree in Religious Studies and have written and given talks about spirituality.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

To meet people.

I mostly don't need somewhere to stay as my work means I can afford to get somewhere where I can guarantee some quite, focussed work time.

Intereses

Meditation: I'm not Buddhist, just been very inspired by it. I've had a daily practice since 2001 and take silent retreats every year.

Computers: This is somewhat love/hate - on the one hand they let me earn the money to travel, whilst on the other hand, being in front of a screen so much isn't good for me. I love Open Source though and tinkering on my own little projects. Other buzz words: Ruby, Rust, Linux, ZSH, design patterns, Big O notation.

Other interests: bouldering (climbing), running, languages and science, especially physics.

Música, películas y libros

Mostly acoustic music, like folk. I play guitar and clawhammer banjo.

All the movies by the Cohen Brothers!

I'm not particularly fond of reading novels, although I do read them when I'm recommended one. For some reason I find the make-believe world of fiction self indulgent, which is odd because I love cinema. I generally prefer non-fiction; spirituality, science, history. Stephen Batchelor (Buddhism Without Beliefs) and Chris Arthur (Northern Irish essayist) are two of my favourites.
