About Me

CURRENT MISSION

books, peace

ABOUT ME

I love to get in contact with people, cultures, philosophy, spiritual experiences, to share, to listen, to see and to understand. Animals are more than welcome in my life. Going for a run with dogs, watching glamorous fishes or other animals - that's what I like, sometimes. I also like the exciting parts in life: music, concerts, freaky galleries/exhibitions, something new, to dance for nights and days etc.

PHILOSOPHY

satisfaction in peace and infinity

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm homeless, to offer a place to sleep might be difficult.
When I went to NZ for the first time, I wanted to take part. But I didn't. I startet in Germany with couchsurfing, went to Switzerland. But from the beginning I offered myself as tour guide in Berlin, as coffee drinker, as time sharer - where ever you need me I'm there. Bob Dylon would say "I'm not there. I'm everywhere."

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed in Leipzig, Bochum, Lucerne, Zurich, New Zealand (2nd time) and met interesting, lovely people, I wouldn't have met without couchsurfing, for sure. It opened my soul. Just love it...

Music, Movies, and Books

through the bench: Faucoult, Foer, Frank, Frisch - and that's just the f.

Honestly everything but it must be honest, slow music, music with rhythm and soul, which means: Soul, Raggae, Funk, Hip Hop, Classic, Rock (Clueso, FAT FREDDY'S DROP, Hamburger Schule, Grey Boy, the roots, Nicolas Jaar, Yann Tiersen etc.), electronic stuff (minmal, dub, D'n'B).
So many things have a good side. Also the three terms we have to define. So how could we fix them in the melting pot?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One? I was a guide for whale watching in Tarif, Spain. That was pretty amazing, when I saw some Fin whales coming up next to our boat and blowing the water in the air or a giant group of striped dolphins jumping all over the sea. Free climbing in the Sesriem Canyon, Namibia, when the stone in my right hand lost it's hold - and me as result. And so on...

Teach, Learn, Share

Share. Sightseeing. People say I'm really good in presenting my home.
Going out. Love the smaller places, the alternative stuff.
Communicating. I could share informations about environmental, critical thoughts, about politics and humans behavior, about spiritual aspects, universe and energy. I like to exchange and to discuss points of view - endless in endless being and endless thoughts.
Vegan cooking. Seeing the world with open eyes and with the inner side. Percepting truth.
