CURRENT MISSION

Living in Korea, working on two online apps.

ABOUT ME

Haven't made up my mind about this one. See Interests.

PHILOSOPHY

Ultimately, I believe there is absolute truth. As far as my introspective philosophy is concerned, I try not to be too definitive. Although I guess that's philosophical in itself. I don't easily make up my mind, partly because I don't really want to. I'm a recipe for contradiction.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people form different lands.

Interests

Pieces and puzzles, codes and conduct, structures and stripes, word games and brain teasers, soccer and tennis, algorithms and fractal flames, absurd profundities and non-expectations. None of them an obsession, but all reasonably relevant.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies that Charlie Kaufman, Michel Gondry or Spike Jonze had a hand in. I'd like to give you a few unconventional author names but I'm afraid I can't. I'm not a book buff but I like a bit of riveting reading. Bands known and appreciated partially or completely: Radiohead, The Unicorns, Islands, Caribou, Of Montreal, The Smashing Pumpkins, Simon & Garfunkel, Belle and Sebastian, TV on the Radio, Blonde Redhead.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't really live for highlights. What is amazing to me is more likely to be an unexpectedly fantastic occasion than a planned expedition. Okay - I'm possibly saying this because I haven't done something mind-bogglingly awesome yet, like climbing Mount Everest or wrestling a polar bear. I still have time.

Teach, Learn, Share

I recently refreshed my knowledge of the recent history of my country. But I'm not going to try and condense it to fit in right here. I'll add random snippets of whatever if it comes to mind.
