About Me

CURRENT MISSION

accept the reality as it is, not as you would like it to be

ABOUT ME

Hi!
I am Tim.
I live with a wonderful dog.
I am not young anymore. But also not old. Let's say, I am just getting warmed up.
I like to travel, I like to couch surf. I am not the greatest party animal, but more of laid back bar hanging a talking kinda guy.
I meditate vipassana from time to time.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life, respecting that of others.
And my dog's.
And all other beings for that matter. Life is sacred. Without it, none of us would be here.
So, out of respect, please don't bring any food that comes from animals.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

hosted lots of people
surfed in Peru, Guatemala, Mexico, Nepal, Orlando, ...

All my couch surfing experiences were with my then-wife, who you can find here: https://www.couchsurfing.org/profile.html?id=3WL8WBA
We broke up, but are still friends. But I need a profile for myself, so ... here we are.

Music, Movies, and Books

Going from trash metal to classical, techno to indie or drum 'n bass, i listen to practically everything. But nothing to poppie.
For books i don't have a lot of time. I mostly read technical papers or non fiction.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can offer you a living room with a couch. You get the company of an extremely friendly dog. And good coffee.
My place is a close to the center and trams bring you to there in 20 minutes.
If I have time, I can show you some of the locals hotspots.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Great company! Hang out! I'll show you around!
But ... You've got to begin your request by guessing what breed my dog is. (No it is not lassie, or a collie)

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Bolivia, Cambodia, Denmark, England, France, Germany, Guatemala, Hong Kong, India, Italy, Laos, Luxembourg, Mexico, Nepal, Netherlands, Norway, Peru, Spain, Switzerland, Thailand, Tunisia, United Kingdom, United States, Viet Nam
