Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet nice / interesting / local people where I travel, and to offer the same when I can.

Interests

My main side-interest is music and I am involved in a couple live electronic projects.

• yoga
• traveling
• electronic music
• visual arts

Music, Movies, and Books

Recent non-fiction: Zizek. Recent fiction: John Williams. Recent TV: I don't really have time!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

10-day silent meditation retreat (Vipassana) in Myanmar, which might sound more boring than amazing (;

Teach, Learn, Share

I've lived in Berlin over 3 years and can make recommendations, especially galleries, yoga, parks, cafes, and, of course, clubbing!

What I Can Share with Hosts

When I'm not renting it out, I have a spare room in a very nice flat in a very nice area of Neukölln / Berlin just by Tempelhofer Feld.
