I have three children: Lucas, 17 Celia 15 and Eleonore 6. In my profession I am repairing, restoring, and building violins. To make very good work and to make my customers happy is most important to me. Harmony with people and good conversations makes me feel that life is great. I am physically active, mostly through biking and jogging.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I prefer a good social experience, and dislike hotels because of expenses and a feeling of isolation from the locals.

Jazz, S. Grapelli - who was also my customer.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

On bike from Trondheim to Oslo = 550km in 28 hours without sleep - it made me feel that all things since are easy to manage.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I can recommend excellent recordings in classical music and how to get wonderful sound in hi-fi equipment. I like to learn about Food and different ways of thinking than my own.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

How to build, restore, and improve houses to fix the many problems which are common today. Making very healthy food, preferably vegetarian, which also shall have a great taste.
