About Me

i see myself as creative person. I love construction, to build or craft something. Often i start to much projects and do not focus on finishing. Than i feel terrible, grasp together my "rest"-discipline and succeed in so many areas. Success keep me going. I love to feel self effective...and start the next 10 projects at once.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I traveled a lot since i was around 13; starting with hitchhikeing through europe; one year asia in ´89 (india, malaysia, indonesia, philippines), hitchhiked across usa (´95); visiting beijing (´05); Rio de Janeiro (´12); laos (´13) and india (´14) on a motorbike.

In the past years i have some really nice experience with coachsurfing as a guest or host.

Interests

i am interested in computers since i a was 8 or 9 years - so IT-Stuff is so normal to me like brushing teeth. It turned out to be my profession. Combining hobby and job is always a good idea . Dedication makes work particularly successful.

i am interested in people, landscapes, adventures, good and positive stories of live, aspects of philosophy, psychology, sociology, health and most important the love that tight people together and give sense in live

additionatly i sing in a choir and dance a little salsa with my favorite
