Somewhat long-time Surfer... with less activity recently.

started CS around 2004, used it a lot for travels, not so much recently. As a host, especially since I started working, including a long commute, I prefer independent guests and don't mind at all if guests do their own thing. Big fan of tea and food, not so big a fan of (large amounts of) alcohol and party. not that this applies to the usual CSer, but i guess this profile should reflect my growing old and grumpy.

[lovely that i am not made to state a "current mission" anymore :D]

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Always good.

Interests

reading, cinema, Capoeira, swimming, running (all of this sporty stuff needs some convincing of the inner couch potato), writing letters. and since the last update, I need to add some more guilty pleasures, meaning TV Series like twin peaks (not so guilty, this pleasure), buffy, angel, firefly (yes, whedonfan), dark angel (you see the pattern of the ass-kicking female?), ... and oh this list was not updated for quite a while. Will not start doing this now ;-)
