About Me

Due to the new couchsurfing (non)privacy policy I created another account at bewelcome.org. Nickname: Kanalpiroge

Hi there! I'm an open minded (everyone here seems to be ;) guy from the "Ruhrgebiet", Germany and I'm currently living in Mannheim. I like to get in touch with nice, relaxed people from wherever. I'm interested in many kinds of music and I'm playing the drums and guitar myself.

I love hanging around outside. Ideally in a warm summer night with a camp fire and some friends. Hanging around on the couch and playing video games is also fine!

Depending on my mood and the environment I can be a very quiet or a really active chatting person. A nice chat gives me more than the coolest party. But I like the parties, too.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like hosting people if I'm not too busy or stressed and up to now I enjoyed everyone who visited me.

I also attend couchsurfing events around here from time to time to get in touch with other people from CS. Got to know some really cool people there and some even became close friends of mine.

Interests

music, not a special genre but mostly non-mainstream
drumming, playing the guitar
music festivals (with camping!)
some IT stuff
philosophy (I'm an amateur...)

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: K-Pax, Finding Nemo, Papa ante Portas, Harold & Maude, The Future is unwritten (Joe Strummer Bio), trivial marvel stuff and similar movies to rinse my brain ;)

Music: REM, Ramones, Pink Floyd, Soulfly, Mono & Nikitaman, Ska-P, Death Cab for Cutie, Chuck Regan... many different kinds of music. I'm not attached to a single genre.

Books: Haben oder sein, 1000 neue Dinge die man bei Schwerelosigkeit tun kann, Siddharta, Hartmut und ich ...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once I've seen a lady bird... :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Oh, I think having cool conversations is the best way to learn and teach at the same time. And the topic will have to evolve depending on the situation and constellation of the people.

I'm willing to teach every of my abilities I mentioned in this profile if you're interested in it.
