CURRENT MISSION

Not letting my masters thesis suck the life out of me!!!

ABOUT ME

Wow. Ok... well I'd say I'm just another person wondering which way life is going, constantly switching between the dark(-beer) side and the good, responsible, mom-look-at-me-now side :P
Right now I've been living great times in Dresden as an Erasmus student, and am finishing my studies there. God knows where I will be next year, but they better have a piano there somewhere!
One of the things that makes me happy the most: moshing big time in a thrash metal concert \m/0.o\m/

PHILOSOPHY

You only live once, and then "lights out". Happiness is why you are here, chase it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None so far I'm afraid. Don't think crashing someone's place after a night out counts xD

Interests

Puff. Music, tons of it. Specially metal and rock, but also totally different stuff. Movies, politics, aviation, history, beer... currently getting back to reading. Occasionally learning how to cook a new dish. I also enjoy playing the piano, playing tennis, jogging with an appropriate soundtrack and moving around by bycicle!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A human chain around the old area of Dresden and across the river, people holding hands in silence looking at a city that was razed to the ground not that many decades ago. Was cool to be part of it, even as a foreigner.

Teach, Learn, Share

Only thing I remember now:
1. Find a song you like with a rythm that matches your jogging speed.
2. Get the beats per minute of it using this: http://www.all8.com/tools/bpm.htm
3. Instal MixMeister BPM Analyser, analyse your music library and find songs with a similar rythm.
4. Jogging is now waaaay more electrifying!
