CURRENT MISSION

To absolutely not have a mission

ABOUT ME

I escaped from my office via the front door. It turned out to be much less complicated than I thought.

PHILOSOPHY

Essentially, I'm a northern European sceptic who needs to be shaken and stirred from time to time. Hands-on, mucky, first-hand experience is everything (without it words are hollow). And each day is an opportunity to surprise and be surprised.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By living as best I can, with regard for others. By experiencing, and sharing my experiences. By offering the couch in my flat to others (as soon as I have a couch. And a flat)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm just starting. So far so good! I've been hosted by two very generous people so far, and been in touch with many others who have made me feel very welcome to CS. One day I will pay you all back in kind, I promise!

Interests

Oh, lots of things. Singing and reading, the films of Andrey Zvyagintsev, travelling, languages, authors from Latin America, trying to understand how it is that Sundays feel the same wherever I am in the world, dawn walks, evening ambles, hiking, the act of creation.
