CURRENT MISSION: Find the beat in your life! Ask people other things than where they're from or what they study. Be creative. Find a good work-life balance, which doesn't mean laziness. Come up with revolutionary visions for the future! Bake the best bread, one that will make you cry, no honestly! And as always: Don't take things too serious, allow for some healthy sarcasm and let's have fun. Fun fun fun!

ABOUT ME: I am like a stickman - simple and undemanding, but very complex and multi-faceted in detail! Spontaneous, uncomplicated, always happy and lighthearted and somehow crazy...

PHILOSOPHY: Only after the last tree has been cut down / Only after the last river has been poisoned / Only after the last fish has been caught / Then will you find that money cannot be eaten.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Auf das Steuer hatte ich verzichtet. Man muss dem Schicksal eine Chance geben. - Käptn Blaubär

Little hint concerning couch requests: It is very likely that I decline your request if it's a request you could have sent anybody or if I get the feeling that you haven't read my profile. However, I promise you that including the word "Aubergine" somehow in a creative way in your request will increase your chances by a factor of 2 to infinity!

How to cook the best rice, how to save all food even and especially if that means I have to eat it, how to sleep as long as possible, how to survive 13 hours in the library and i am always trying to find the fastest way from a to b!

And i read some nerdy stuff too, you know these books without a story...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ice climbing a glacier in the Arctic. Longboarding New Yorks central park. Hitchhiking across Europe. Hiking the Annapurna circuit, Himalaya. Hacking a skyscraper in Busan, South Korea and sitting at home in the garden on a sunny morning.

Teach, Learn, Share

Always keen to learn new languages! But please do not try to teach me elvish or the klingon language...

For some lovely smiling i definitely can teach you how to slackline, we could go bouldering or plan how to sail to the north pole! Anyway, i am in!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Peace, love and happiness!
