About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Chilling, building an emporium of wisdom and whatevers.

ABOUT ME

HI! :D

I'm energetic, talkative, trustworthy and compassionate. I've finished my master degree in philosophy, play drums (and any percussion, pretty much), practiced several martial arts, and am involved with street art projects and all beauty that connects to it..!

When I hang out with friends my (our) main goal is to have a care-free environment where everyone has as much space as needed. And I hope to meet as many people that wish to be equals, to discuss life and chill out :)

Honestly, I don't know what you'd like to read for a description, so just hit me up per mail or Facebook if you need to know anything!

PHILOSOPHY

I'm a live-loving stoic yet pragmatic Nietzschean; if that makes any sense - because it shouldn't.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host, I surf. I cook, and love be cooked for. I talk, and will listen. I love, and treasure it in return.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been to several places in Europe together with friends, and I'm always ready to meet new people! I've helped host CS'ers at others' places, and am opening up myself as soon as I return from the worls trip :)

Interests

Life: Spirituality, philosophy, mysticism.
Music: Electronical (wide range of techno, dnb, dub), (old school) punk, classical, folk, jazz.
Gaming: Especially card games (poker, MtG), and computer gaming in general.

I have no real interest in (watching) competitive sports, except for MMA and poker; I don't even know why!

On a physical level I love to explore, to undertake hikes, mountain bike, and search for natural as well as perhaps chemically-induced rushes :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Hit me up with any cult movie, but don't give me the standard Hollycrap feel-good movies.

Music!? Darn, let's go out, let's find a live show like the Cat Empire, or dance all night on some serious electro; I'm in for anything!

I've read way too many boring philosophy books, yet the ones that did interest me were typically the ones (also in general literature) that describe the oddities and absurdities of life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ah! I wanted to speak to you about this, and we may just do so soon!

My most recent crazy experience? Boom Festival 2014 in Portugal... It's batshitcrazy and one of the most beautiful places on earth that I visited; physically and spiritually.

Teach, Learn, Share

Learn me about permaculture, about treating nature rightfully, and about the weirdest cultural criticism you can come up with, and I'll hopefully to have much to offer in return.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Canada, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Poland, Portugal, Spain, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In

Germany, Netherlands
