CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Mhhh... jappp... yeah... hrrrr...... Most of the time I am excited of what will come. Sometimes I am afraid as well. And often things just happen to me.

I am working in political education.

I try to take care of myself and the people around me and as well people I do not know, in a more political sense. Sometimes that works.

And I think this summer will be great.

PHILOSOPHY

I've learned so much from my mistakes, so I'm thinking of making a few more

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I really enjoy hosting and opening my home for people from different cities and countries. It is like travelling without moving, a wise someone once said.

I live in a big flat with four friends. At the moment we are not so active in couch surfing - if we have a free room from time to time we host newly arrived refugees who don not have a place to stay in Berlin through another platform.

If I do have time to travel or have to go somewhere, I also surf couches. Of course. And I like it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met a lot of very nice, warm and interesting people with couchsurfing, so most of the time I really enjoy it to host or surf.

Interessi

writing, travelling, snowballfights, watching and playing theater, good conversations, thoughts about how society works and could work in a different way and finding ways to step forward into a hopefully not utopian living together without discrimination. Being critical about my one behaviors. Dance and laught, being active or sleep, cinema, painting, reading good textes, scuffling, singing just for me, playing robot unicorn attack on my PC while thinking about difficult things, watching the sea, climbing on trees and jump back on the ground

Musica, film e libri

A lot of different things that change often.

Some movies: Grüne Tomaten, Harald and Maude, movies directed by Pedro Almodovar, Wes Andersen, Emir Kusturica. Also Mamma Mia the musical :) and some others

Music: I think I'm a word listener, so I enjoy music with good textes for example: Element of Crime, Sookee, Die Sterne, Dota und die Stadtpiraten, Tocotronic, and many more.
But of course I also listen to music just because of the music. So the list is a lot longer with a lot of different things listed (f.e. Dark Dark Dark, First Aid Kid, Moloko, Pete Phillys & Perquisite, Waldeck, Beirut, Beatles, Abba, Cocorosie, Tracy Chapman, Caravan Palace...)

Books: I love reading so it is not easy to list a few authors or names. Generally I like stories with crazy, nearly grotesque characters like the ones of John Irving, Jeanette Winterson, Milan Kundera. This year I've fallen in love with the story of Tschick. I also like lyric a lot. Poems of Erich Fried for example or Ingeborg Bachmann, Paul Celan, Rainer Maria Rilke even if I'll never understand most of them in their complete meaning.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I have a little brother and a even more little sister. When she was crying, because her theeths began to grow, my 5 year old brother, who is always(!) crazy and hard to calm, stood next to her bed and sang with a real quiet voice a self-texted song: "I am your brother and I will take care of you. You don't have to be affraid!" (in German, of course)
And she stopped crying and fell into sleep.
