ABOUT ME

Music, Movies, and Books

"I believe in Bach, the Father, Beethoven, the Son, and Brahms, the Holy Ghost of music." said the famous conductor Hans von Bülow (1830-1894). Of course I like many others too, but the quote is funny. :-)
When reading I prefer to spend my time on the classics, e.g. Homer, Dante, Cervantes, Tolstoj, Mann, Dickens, Borges, Márquez, ..., and lots of poems.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Suddenly almost facing an angry 400 kg muskox while hiking in Greenland.

Teach, Learn, Share

We can practice languages - I'm fluent in Danish, Swedish, English, Spanish or German. Or I can teach you something about music and how to play the piano or how to wave your hands in front of a choir; also called musical leadership. ;-)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Towels, bed linen, some meals.
