ABOUT ME

I am working as a teacher (music, latin, theatre). That's why I can travel only during my holiday. But fortunately we've got many holidays here.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Travelling means not only sight-seeing-stuff to me , but also to get to know the people living there. Exchange culture, experiences and different points of view enriches our knowledge and opens our mind.

Intereses

I love listening to music, going to live-concerts or playing instruments like the piano, the guitar or accordion or singing. I am writing songs about experiences, questions or just observations I made and go to open-mics to perform.
I also love art exhibitions ... standing in front of Monet's water lillies for the first time touched me a lot
Living and working one year in Sardinia/Italy I envelop my passion for food and cooking. Try everything to get to know all different shades of taste. A typical dish tells a lot about the culture of a country.

Música, películas y libros

Beethoven, Chopin, Debussy, Jamie Cullum, Angus&Julia Stone, Glen Hensard, Helgi Johnson, Tina Dico, Paolo Fresu, Fabrizio d'Andre, Eva Cassidy, Bears of Legend, Mumford and Sons, Gershwin ....
Starting from classical musical, via Singer-Songwriter and Folk up to Bossa Nova, Samba, Jazz and Rock. But even electronical music or Pop music can be great, if it fits with the atmosphere and the situation
Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Arthur Miller, Bertold Brecht, Dorothy Parker - too many books I liked and still want to read

Algo increíble que he hecho

Trip to my grandfather's past in France... He was a prisoner after the Second World War in France, where he worked and lived with a French family. They are still alive and I got to know them last year. Seems weird, but it was a such a special experience.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can teach instruments and languages (even non-spoken ones like latin ;)
I love to learn new languages and customs or traditions, historical facts
I would like to share experiences and points of view and culture or discuss philosophical issues.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I can cook Italian dishes, sing songs for you or we even make some music together.
We may also discuss complicate stuff or just have fun making bad jokes.
