About Me

Introverted nerd most at home out and about in nature yet striving to also connect with more people and enjoy the glimpses of livr through the eyes of others.
Usually staying busy with work and such obligations but always working to find time for diverse passions for the outdoors, experiencing the world and life to its fullest!

My big dog and I would look forward to meeting you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think this is a great way to experience traveling somewhere new--by meeting and staying with people, and connecting with the environment far better this way than something sterile like staying in a hotel.

Interests

Woodworking, violin, dance, cooking... and too many other interests that don't seem to fit in a 24-hr day or 7-day week.

  • dancing
  • environment
  • cooking
  • woodworking
  • violin
  • outdoor activities
  • boxing
  • science

Music, Movies, and Books

Apparat ranks first as my favorite musical artist.

Books--too many to list....currently re-reading The Bourne Identity by Robert Ludlum because it's that good and needed a refresher after too many years

Some fav movies:
Memoirs of a Geisha, Run Lola Run, the Stieg Larsson trilogy but only the Scandanavian version of it...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Built a fantastic mobile home out of an empty Peugeot Boxer van.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm aching to learn to skateboard. I never learned that skillset as a kid and regret that-- but it's never too late!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd enjoy to share stories (in English or German), ideas, to go out on the town dancing or exploring, to be good company out for a jog, or try out new activities, too. I love to cook and bake, and would be honored to get to cook a meal to share as a partial thank you for hosting me! Or I'd also be glad to cook a meal at my place to share of you are joining me as a guest.
