CURRENT MISSION

If your life's a mission, you're missing a lot.

ABOUT ME

I totally suck in the self-praising field. I'm pretty bad at small-talk, too. And concerning the rest of me... Well, you'll find that out when we get to know each other personally.

PHILOSOPHY

There are two things that you should never take too serious: life and yourself.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

With an open mind, three empty couches and sometimes even enough beer in the fridge.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Every experience (no matter if hosting, surfing or just meeting) was somehow extraordinary. I really learned a lot about stuff I would not (or never?) have got into contact with without couchsurfing, i.e. for example russian / italian / belglian / (fill in your country) literature, intercultural relationships, the swiss tax system, american minorities, true college-stories, swedish HipHop and Electro, finnish problem resolutions, fairly fameless musicians, dancehall nerdism, canadian homesickness, sustainable design, castrating pharmaceuticals, danish craziness, dutch squatting, google drinking games, unconventional priests, sightseeing on bike or what's it like to have home-sitters.

音乐、电影和书籍

There's no favourite music, just favourite times for different kind of music. The top acts in my itunes are (in no particular order) Amewu, The Tallest Man On Earth, Caetano Veloso, The XX, Abstract Rude, Atmosphere, Lykke Li, Mumford & Sons, Feist, Miss Li, Trolle/Siebenhaar, Miss Platnum, Françoise Hardy, Vinicio Capossela, M.I.A., Maskinen, K'naan, Angus & Julia Stone, Gris, Icke & Er, K.I.Z. and different kinds of compilations, for example from the 90's, bossa nova, baile funk, french chansons or african world music. But when I'm in no music mood at all I enjoy and can highly recommend movies written or directed by Charlie Kaufman, Christopher Nolan, Alejandro González Iñarritu, Fernando Mereilles, Jim Jarmusch, Woody Allen or Quentin Tarantino and (some) books of Michel Houellebecq, Jonathan Safran Foer, Charles Buckowski, David Foster Wallace, Frank McCourt, John Fowles or Chuck Palahniuk.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

What do you expect me to say here? Something like "one time in band camp?" Come on! Okay, now I got one: I tore down the Berlin Wall, I really did. But beeing just 8 years old, it did not leave the biggest impact. Neither on me, nor on the wall.

教，学，和分享

I could teach you some nice footbag moves (incl. one killer jump), how to make an amazing Latte Macchiato or - even more complicated - a perfect lasagne (old italian family recipe!). In return I will try to learn (or at least remember) anything you can show me. I'm pretty curious. Well, if we share a good time, that's quite a lot already.
