Oh dear!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting people, who give you something. The feeling that it was worth it, a smile or perhaps even the sense that this world is good at heart.

Interests

I'm quiet obsessed with music (just consuming). Then comes film, then books (but I read way too less).
Cooking and drinking can be great fun and travelling in impulse even more. I don't know why I connected these three.
Also I like conversations who tend to be really philosophical in the late hours. ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

I adore Heinrich Böll to name an author of my native country. Hemingway, Milan Kundera, Gabriel Garcia Marquez and David Foster Wallace left an impression on me. But my favourite book should be The Great Gatsby. Also I like Sci-fi or dystopian settings very much.
Best "modern" book? Maybe "Atonement" by Ian McEwan.

Music and movies: too much good things are happening here to pick some out....ok, some favourites?

Right now: Benjamin Clementine, Broken Bells, Courtney Barnett, Die Nerven, Mick Flannery, Four Tet, Nils Frahm (the LateNightTales edition!!!), John Frusciante, John Grant, Isolation Berlin, Jaakko Eino Kalevi, Ja(,) Panik, Sébastien Tellier, The Tallest Man On Earth, Wanda, Get Well Soon (motto of the year, every year^^) and of course the one and only Father John Misty.

Forever: Devendra Banhart, Nick Cave, Leonard Cohen, The Cure, The Divine Comedy, Einstürzende Neubauten, Brian Eno, Fleet Foxes, The Go-Betweens/Robert Forster, George Harrison, Joy Division, Massive Attack, MGMT, Morrissey/The Smiths, The National, Nina Simone, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Lou Reed, Roxy Music, Elliott Smith, Tom Waits, Neil Young, Frank Zappa and, and, and. POST-PUNK and DUB/Reggae! Olli Schulz!

Beatles or Rolling Stones? Kinks ;)

Oh, I love soundtracks. In fact, that is why I got into both deeply.
Right now the one from above mentioned Sébastien Tellier for the movie "Narco". Many, many of some strange Italian Giallo movies, mainly Morricone. Those of the David Lynch ones were my gateway drug.

I think I have to stop...that was only the music section.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd like to learn more about how I can live my life the way I want it to be.
This is also one thing that can be shared.
