About Me

I´m that bookish guy that lets everybody know what they need to know. Sometimes I even listen and let others speak. Unfortunatly I completly lack any sense of humor and have no antenna for irony.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting and getting to know people by living with them is fun.
Especially when I have the honor to host.
Also: why pay everything with money and not help with word, deeds and attention?

Interests

Sports, theater, debating, did i mention books?
In Münster, where I live for years now, I am active with a group that wants to establish a self-governing workingplace for artisans, artists and freelancers with public space for open workshops, cultural and political interaction.

Teach, Learn, Share

As a "Sprecherzieher"(still have not found a good translation for that) and political scientist my professional field is voice training, theatre peadagogy, rhetorics and intercultural communication. I´m happy for every exchange on these topics and beyond. Talking about the weather may be nice too but do not try to lure me into discussing sports which is hopeless.
Also I love to connect discussions with cooking and a sip of wine.
