ABOUT ME

All...?
We are a couple for quite a long time. And we have now a child, Sven, which means that's it is more tricky to host people, since we don't have extra rooms. But you might try anyway - it is always possible to sleep in our son's room and to give our bed to host... so but creative in asking (and don't be afraid of sometimes early wakes !)
(Eric) I do like big sunglasses which does not mean I'm only superficial. I like to talk and meet new people. It's never easy to be witty in writing about himself. (Rachel) nods.

We can become already virtual friends on facebook. You will find us under "Ozgül Pranbanan" and "Mouschi Obermeier". Why those names ? They sounded fun.

PHILOSOPHY

Oh well... Enjoy everything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We like this idea of hosting (or being hosted by) people. It still seems to us a bit weird, but we only had nice experiences as/with guests so we hope it will go on like this.
Be pleased to show the city around, especially by bike.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A few experiences, because of weird schedules...
and because a lot of friends come to visit us in Berlin, as well...

We couched in Strasbourg, Berlin (indeed), Avignon, Tokyo and Locarno and hosted in Geneva and in Berlin. We were supposed to couch on Kyushu island, but our host forgot us - that what our only bad (non-)experience on CS.

Music, Movies, and Books

At the very moment I read "devil's valley" and other stuffs - like Zizek. I always read many books at the same time.
Books: Artaud, Maiakovski, Faulkner, Flaubert, Proust, Segalen
WE JUST LIKE BOOKS. WE HATE TV-SHIT. But we don't have any TV.

Movies: Tarkovsky, Bollywood movies, Bruno Dumont "La peur est la matière première des acteurs au cinéma" (not the title of a movie, but something he said on a french radio) etc
Fun: Monthy python flying's circus

And Anna Politovskaia as well...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We went to a bollywood set in the middle of Varanasi and sat next to Rani Mukherji, one of the great bollywood actress.

Teach, Learn, Share

Rachel can teach how to put her own fist in her mouth (she says that she has a big mouth and a small fist).
We would love to learn japanese for our next trip.
