About Me

HELLO WORLD

My name is Karl and I am currently trying for the first time, to work a full-time job - which is, very surprizingly, exactly what I need these days - both for the money, for the programming skills but mostly for the 'boredom' and slow work-life tempo, that I need to get grounded, less stressed and calm, before I jump into my next adventure.

I am very interested in a lot of things, and my favorite hobby is a new hobby. But after that, it's definitely motorcycles, political theory and hard (preferable electronic) music.

I am 26 years old. The middle one in a big group of children, and they say that matters for who you are - but I don't know.

I like writing a lot. Letters, emails, notes, memos, blogposts, forum posts, articles, programs and code.

I also really like technology. Especially web-technology, like encryption, security systems, bigger data and statistics. I love excel, and I wished I used it more in my daily life.

I am a friend! Most of all. Not looking for commitment, prison or slavery - but definitely for new relationships of any. I think I've used couchsurfing for 8 years! Maybe even more! I feel old!

Other lovely things:
Wine, moons, shade, everything with wheels, tabletennis and dogs. Also movies - I really love my movies. I smoke weed, drink and sometimes I stay up really late. I do not consider myself healthy, but I love exercising so much I even follow olympic weightlifting profiles on Instagram.

If I could, I would open a gym for classical weightlifting where it was allowed to smoke marijuana and the music would be:
Bob Marley, Wu-Tang and west-coast hiphop on the chill side, and all kinds of hardcore's on the other end.

Random fact:
I'm learning the banjo right now.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To live, travel and work with new people.

Also to share drinks and smokes while telling my stories and listening to other's.

And honestly, I need it to have a decent life. It is my choice, but I am homeless with a new office everyday - be it camping in raw nature, on the floor of a squatted house or on your lovely couch!
