About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet friends all over the world, and have a place to crash in every town. :P

ABOUT ME

I never know what to write in these things, so I´ll steal a few words from John Lennon.
"You may say that I´m a dreamer, but I´m not the only one.
I hope one day you´ll join us, and the world will be as one."

PHILOSOPHY

While I do love living, it gets hard sometimes with all the bullshit happening in the world, it can get a bit overwhelming, but when it gets too much I always say to myself: The future is awesome, just imagine, in 20 years we might even have flying cars, and that will truly be the end of borders.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's always nice to crash on a couch every now and again. First got into it in the States when I met a couple of couchsurfers who showed me the ropes. After that I've slept on a few couches and hosted a few surfers, though I haven't really been active on the site. I plan to change that though.

Interests

Art in general, music, books, movies, tv and video-games.
Other than that I love beeing outside, just enjoying nature. Usually with a couple of friends so we can philosophise about life, the universe and everything.

Music, Movies, and Books

60´s music mainly, The Beatles is the greatest band ever, and so is Pink Floyd. I also love Doo Wop and want to start my own Doo Wop group.
Books: Anything by Stephen King, Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams. I also love the beatnik authors and the Gonzo journalists of the 60's and 70's
Besides Star Wars, my favourite movie is Wristcutters: A Love Story. I can't get enough of musicals, I squeal with joy at any horror movie, good or bad. And Jodorowsky's Dune is the greatest movie never made. Movies are probably my biggest passion, and I can sit through anything just to watch the filmatography.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The happiest days of my life happened during my trip to India. I managed to spend all my money, and I couldn´t get access to any new money for 3 weeks. All the hotels and guesthouses in the area were full, so I slept on the beach for three weeks. I was wonderful, I met people every morning who would excersise on the beach, and the people in the bars would help me with food and stuff. I guess it was during this time that I truly learned that most people are good.

Teach, Learn, Share

I guess you´ll have to meet me to find out what I can teach, I guess I could always show people a bit of guitar.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories. So many crazy stories. As a taste, I can tell you that a real life pimp in Alabama once offered to make me his apprentice.

I also play a little guitar and sing. Mostly Bobby Brown by Frank Zappa.

Countries I’ve Visited

India, Portugal, Spain, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

Bosnia and Herzegovina
