Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that the only way to travel properly is to meet people! Sounds cliche, but for me that's the distinction between tourism and traveling.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:I'm also very open to all kinds, currently listening to a lot of Ethiopian music.

Books: currently into J.m Coetzee
