There aren't many things to say about me except that I won three gold medals at the olympic games, received two Ph.D's and I am a close friend of several US-presidents. NOT!

I considered to describe myself as wary and impatiently but I had to learn that it is common just to highlight the pleasant features. So, I would describe myself as liberal and tolerant nearly towards everyone...I forgot to mention that I am reliable and inquisitive.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to explore several lifestyles for creating my own. That is not just a senseless phrase! I often thought 'Oh man, why did I use the convenient way to do that? This one brings much more effort but multiple satisfaction'
....and that is just why I sold my fully automatic coffee machine

Music, Movies, and Books

To be honest I'm not really a literate person. Hopefully, one day there will be the right book which is worth it to read.
I prefer to read political magazines like Le Monde diplomatique.
Aside from that I am pretty interested in a music genre called 'world music' and any kind of electronic music sub genres, except of so called dance and trance music. For those of you, who aren't into this music it might be a little bit confusing, but i'll try my best to spread my enthusiasm in that regard.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I wanted to hike from Munich to Venice but I had to surrender after a couple of days because of loads of blisters at my feet, amazing huh?

Teach, Learn, Share

I definitely can teach you how to cook some simple things, like tasty soups.. If you book the advanced course I have to cheat by looking up the recipe in the book, but we'll nevertheless manage to create a decent meal.

If you also have "that neardy part" inside you, I can show you how simple science can be if someone explains those things without pretentious jargon. Everyone is intelligent!
