ABOUT ME

Seize the day! Every morning it´s your choice to say I´m happy or not. So I made it my life-task to get up on the RIGHT side - always. I hate conflicts - at least the ones which are really unneccessary. I´m a person who smiles all day(I try) and also loves it to see other people smile. I like to see/make other people happy.

I like to laugh and have fun with friends and new faces. You could say I am outgoing. Sometimes I tend to be a little crazy, but tell me what´s normal??=)

Finally the most important thing about me is: I am besotted with musik. Sometimes I make people angry by drumming onto everything I can find, if there´s my favourite song on the radio!:D

I have been playing the piano for more than 10 years and teached it to myself to play the guitar - for 3 years I think. And I was in the school´s choir - YEAH!:D

Beside music, sport is also an important element of my life. I´ve been skateboarding for 9 Years.
And I love schwimming;) Just now I´m visiting a life-guard-course at the german army.
Which leads me to another important thing. At the moment I´m serving my time an the german army. 2 Months left, all in all 14 Months. It was a great experience and I never want to miss.

All in all I´m an open-minded-crazy-always smiling-sportfreak-musician!=)
I hope you´ve got a raw idea of me=)

PHILOSOPHY

Smile to the world and the world smiles back.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Hot Shots, The Naked Gun 1 - 33 1/2, Loaded Weapon, Skelleton Key, Seven, The Day After, Butterfly Effect, Donnie Darko, Monty Python,...and uncountable more good movies. Next to many comedies, I love thriller or a nice drama most. Movies which help me on in my personal development. Which go deep in the understanding of society or the world.

Books: It´s almost the same with books. Horror-thriller, criminal books,...boring. Maybe this is because I didn´t catch a good one, but everytime I read these books, I know what happens long before. I´ts always the same. Because of that I mostly read novels which have something to say.
Here a small assortement of great books:
Blindness - José Saramago
Seeing - José Saramago
A Special Providence - Richard Yates
The Twelve - William Gladstone
The Shadow of the Wind - Carlos Ruiz Zafón
