Overview
About Me
puh, geuss its about time to update this, its been a while... so i guess i'm just a normal kind of guy, i'm interested in lots of different things and particularly things i haven't done or experienced yet. i like doing sports, all kind of, i also like traveling, reading, i looove theater and movies too. what i really like is meeting people! all kinds of people for all kinds of activities! oh also, i wrote that i like sports, but really i don't do any on a regular basis. more on a random basis... anyway...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Honestly, I'm not so much about the whole experiencing a different culture stuff and all that. I just know very well the feeling when you travel and you just need a place to sleep somewhere, without booking a hotel or hostel. so many nights i spent on the streets and under bridges and i remember very well how nice it was when i could just crash at someones place. so i guess i just feel for people that need a cheap place to stay. sometimes these experiences are great and you end up hanging out with your surfer/host, sometimes you don't really see each other....
Interests
oh, i guess i wrote some of it already in the "about myself" part.... anyway, traveling, reading, talking, going out, doing all sorts of random things and just getting to know the people and world around me.
- theater
- politics
- movies
- reading
- traveling
- socializing
- sports
Music, Movies, and Books
puuuuuu lets seeee. so musicwise, when i go out i like to listen to this stuff thats all over the place now, so some sort of deep house, tech house and in general electronic dance music, as you would call it. other than going out, i love to listen to lots of different music. i guess you can think of me as the guy who listened a lot to radiohead in my late teens and then moved on from there...
movies... so in general i appreciate the movies being a little weird... doesn't have to be some crazy underground movie, but something original would be nice...
ok, and now books... i like to read a lot, at times at least. i am very much into german and german speaking literature, i love thomas mann and max frisch for instance, but there is so much more out there, i really like milan kundera and i love sartre. anyway, it doesn't really make sense to list books here, so i'll stop..
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
oh common...
Teach, Learn, Share
well, i like to talk philosophy and politics. if this is a thing to teach and learn, i leave for you to decide, but i do believe that in any kind of discussion and storytelling you can teach and learn a lot.
