ABOUT ME
I'm a friendly guy, rather quiet by nature, who likes playing the piano, travelling, reading, listening to music, going by bike, canoeing and sitting in front of campfires.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
The first time I surfed a couch was in Vancouver. My hosts were incredibly friendly, without exception. It was an amazing experience to get in touch with people living in that city. Not arbitrary people but people with similar interests and/or similar mentality. That's a very important point for me. The CouchSurfing profiles really helped to find persons with common ground.
Another really nice experience was that I made friends in my new home town Dresden by following the local CouchSurfing group. This opportunity to get to know like-minded people in your own city is very valuable.

Music, Movies, and Books
Traditional Film Score (Enyo Moricone, John Williams, Hans Zimmer, Harry Gregson-Williams etc.), World Music, Impressionism, Classical, Jazz, Reggae, Dancehall ... I love diversity but I don't like music which is produced primarily for commercial reasons (except it's good nonetheless ;).
Teach, Learn, Share
I could share my knowledge and skills in making music. Apart from that I could teach a little bit German and English. I'm always interested in learning languages, at least the basics.
