About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Share some stories, read long novels, be a good person.

ABOUT ME/US

If you want to stay at my place you will also meet my wonderful room mates Barbara and Jan who are not only fun to talk to but also know the City better than I do. Since our interests are not particularly limited, we will certainly find something that we can talk about together or do together with you - it may include beer.

PHILOSOPHY

Destiny bores me. I'd rather like to be a coin in the air.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love couchsurfing because it is not about peoples business interests and does not affect rental rates but involves important social behavior like trust and hospitality. Aaaaand it turned out to be super fun! Living in a shared flat it is not easy for me to schedule hosting at the moment but I try!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed with a lot of interesting people in various places and had but great experiences via couchsurfing so far.

Music, Movies, and Books

I studied literature and I am very passionate about books, just try me. My fascination for music ranges from Alt-J to Bach (not letter-wise) but of course I rather choose what I like instead of choosing categories. I've seen too many movies, the screen becomes drearier by the day, lets rather play some videogames except you have a really good film to recommend.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been photographed by a google-streetview-camera in machu picchu.

Teach, Learn, Share

I danced Rock`n Roll for more than 12Years on competition-level and I did a lot of standard dancing too. So at least I should be able to teach you how to dance spectacularly through a living room. I also draw, do a lot of sports and I am a decent cook when it comes to german traditional food, which is an almost excotic skill in Berlin.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories, time, knowledge, good vibes, beer (if there is enough to share). I might leave a little sketch for you, if I have the time :D...
