CURRENT MISSION

Travelling more & hosting more travellers!

ABOUT ME

Generally I am a very positive person - sometimes so positive that I wonder if it is even justified at the moment in question.
Also I play the drums, love listening to music and sometimes I even read a book! Oh, and I am a big film fan!

Sometimes I am told that I have a good sense for word games of the off-topic kind (random associations that come to mind) and also that this can get annoying at times. But still I have to speak them out loud because they´re oh so temporary! Be prepared.

PHILOSOPHY

Personal philosophy? Hmmm...
My basic principle is to welcome everyone and everything as unprejudiced as possible. We all know it can be hard sometimes, but actually there´s something common to be found in any other person on this planet. Except for people who enjoy genocide, heavy exploitation, abuse and the like...

I live my life mostly for being happy and helping others at that. There´s so little in our private life worth worrying about in these decadent, Western conditions. It is a bitch though to be indirectly responsible for some dead children in another part of the world each year without actually wanting it. And until I have found a good solution to that mindboggeling topic, I try to reduce my "death-toll" (so to say) and help the people in reach as good as I can.

I guess that wraps it up.

Oh, and I am strongly convinced that people should hug each other more often! FAR more often!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can offer up to 3 spots to sleep. Our flat is quite small but...yeah, 3 people should fit. I´m only living in Berlin since november 2012 so I´ve got to discover this monster of a city myself, still. I do know my area (Kreuzberg) a bit by know, though.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted many people together with my flatmates in Prague, where i did my exchange-semester in 2009/2010. That was the first time I actually heard about this sweet, sweet organisation and now, finally, I joined! Also I couchsurfed in Morocco and it was a blast! Having some troubles to cope with the culture-shock I experienced, it was a relief to have a relaxed and open minded host in Fés. I had the greatest local food, a jam-session with wonderful people on a rooftop and annoying salesmen chasing me through the city´s streets. Thank any Monotheistic God (or other sources of life, the universe and everthing) for all that!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Squatted a house, released an album with my ex-band Billy Rückwärts - and I have seen horses puke!

教，学，和分享

I am willing to teach, learn and share to/from/with any person that is open and interested. I can forward some basics in drumming, playing Diabolo (the juggling-thingy) and maybe some pantomime- and sound imitation skills. Or how to fix a house´s water-system! But it´s hard to say if I´m a good teacher - you´ll have to judge on that. I´d love to learn how to play the guitar properly. I´m stuck with a few chords for years now...shameful, shameful.
