About Me

CURRENT MISSION

life is short so make the best out of it!

ABOUT ME

It's not easy to get me quiet, except in the morning time. Then it needs at least one coffee to get me back to life. I am a spontanous person, who has done some crazy stuff.
I like to sing and cook and of course... I like to eat. I like to try all the food and all the things I haven't tried so far.
Sometimes I feel like Homer Simpson, allways hungry and completly addicted to donuts.
I like to socialize with many other people. I'm interested in how people think and live around the globe.

PHILOSOPHY

There is no "I'm full" - it exists only "hungry" and "sick".

A Dreamer may not have a plan, but he has a vision

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed in Vienna, Ex-en-Provence, Stuttgart and Geneva. So, not a lot of experiences, but I really enjoy the way to get to know other people.

Interests

mmmh I could write a lot here. Cause I'm interested in all the things I don't know. I am very curious person.

But things I like the most are good movies, good food, good friends and good conversations. I guess this is it.

But I am easy to convince to allmost everything. If not try it with a good bottle of wine

Music, Movies, and Books

oh jesus, tough question:
Movies: Mar Adentro, Jetzt oder nie, Så som i himmelen, all the X-Men Movies, Jeux d'enfants, Transamerica, Juno, little miss sunshine, Harold and Maude, ... -> so I like the most independent and european movies. But sometimes it's not bad just to watch a good hollywood-feel-gut-movie

Books: I like books from: Follet, Gordon, many books of the Moyen Age, -> actually I like to read from every athour one or two books and than take the next one. I like all the styles. From crime to fantasy to lyrics (p.e. I like to read shakespeare) to nonfiction books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 18, I jumped out of a plane. Of course not alone. It was a tandem-jump (is this really english, I'm speaking??). But still - it was awesome.
This summer I will do house-running in Stuttgart. I'm really looking forward to it.
After that... oh yeah, I participated with an other CS on an install of spencer tunick in Vienna - Try to find me on one of his pictures ;)
