About Me

CURRENT MISSION

would like to meet new freinds from all over, play and sing together, learning about us and openmindedly experience life without prejudices in respect for each others differences and walks of life planning to move to the warmth and sun in the future....

ABOUT ME

intrested in writing, reading, singing, playing musical instruments, have a recording studio at home, live with a 10 year old female german shepard, house and garden projects, love beaches and sea outdoors in sunshine and warmth, eat grilled meat in summer with a beer (not getting drunk though :-)I am a smoker but not indoors at home, can make room for more than one in my house, allways available as to retirement from work, love discussions about people, spirituality, soul-searching, lives adventures, curious about what I don´t know, haven´t experienced myself, easy to get in deep contact with - no everyday gossip talker though...
looking for true values in relating to people to develop friendship with of mutual respect and integrity
would like to show my surroundings of nature and cozy places and see other places myself, not the tourist traps kind of things, want to get behind surfaces and facades on equal basis

PHILOSOPHY

to ask questions is for free and to answer them is also free
I am an old hippie kind of guy raised in the 60`s
so love peace and understanding is imbibed in my system of values of worth to nourish and look after

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am a CS-member since 2011 and hope to find friends to visit and to come here to my place... so as a starter time will tell what´s around the bend.... and life is worth living ´til the end and go for it :-)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I´ve been a member now for a year and I have hosted some nice people and have only positive experience from doing so. Of cause some of the guests have stayed for such a short time that we didn´t manage to connect on a deeper level. But a couple of them I will do my best to meet again as a guest and I have some who has an open invitation to my humble abode whenever they wish or can or feels like meeting... I look forward to continue some relationships and I miss you in between and think about you from time to time.....

Interests

I have alreaddy written about it above but I can also say that I´m a bit of a looner, bohemian,can live in silence for hours and have a huge creative urge to express myself in words and singing and making music, I love outdoor activities in the summer and dislikes cold, windy, dark and boring wintertime at large

Music, Movies, and Books

I like all kinds of music but hasn´t heared all yet and F.zappa, pink floyd, yes, genesis, king crimson, neil young, jon anderson, jackson browne are some of my favourites
in the book compartment it´s esoteric litterature as eastern lifephilosophy as zen aso. that gets me going most Gibran, Hesse, Jung, Auster, Shaw, Bhagwan and so on and so forth....
movies will be documentary, drama, comedy and some nature and science, politics and history
no action and scifi is on my toplist though :-(

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

skydiving, paragliding, several close to death experiences due to illness, meeting people of different nationalities and playing and singing and dancing and communicating together without being tight up or anxious in a free spirit of joyous communion and respect and love for and with and towards one another on equal terms

Teach, Learn, Share

writing lyrics (poems, songs, short stories)
singing songs (expressing feelings, thoughts, values of intrinsic genuine values/carisma)
recording music and using equipment to enable that
being together in silence enjoying the little pieses the moments of awe and being happy here and now
