About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Being a finder more than a searcher.

ABOUT ME

I am a bi-national, a tolerant person, a born european, open to people, to ideas, to new thrills. Most of the time working a lot, sometimes just hanging around, enjoying to watch the time to go by.

PHILOSOPHY

If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough. (Mario Adretti)
Fish swim, birds fly, people run. (Emil Zatopek)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Up to now I hosted only. Couchsurfing is a bit like travelling without leaving home, since it brings to me one of the valuable experiences of traveling: meeting people from elsewhere.

Interests

FreeBSD, working. Berlin is a great place for having fun.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies about cooking. Electronic music, classic music. I hate trumpets, tin whistles, musicals. Hard rock guitar music just doesn't seems to touch me too much, except for jogging. I like books. Fine literature, manga, popular science, criminal stories, scifi. I like literature which has tongue in cheek, being not too serious about itself.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2004 I won the second price in retelling the movie "Independence day" in front of an 500-people-audience in the course of the the festival "total recall". Check out http://www.total-recall.org, under "Ansehen" you can find me.

Unfortunately I only got as far as 4th place in 2005 in this contest.
