I am a Cellist and translator for Italian and English. I have been living in Berlin for 10 years now, originally I come from Austria. But I lived also in Italy for some years, first in Palermo and later on in Trieste. Two years ago I finished my PhD at Humboldt Universität and published my thesis: almost 600 pages about the Evil Eye...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I always like to welcome people in my home. Because I am a curious and openminded person. Because I prefer to stay with people rather than in sterile hotel rooms.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to music from Bach to HipHop and Jazz, reading started with Karl May at the age of 13. Today I prefer serious philosophical stuff or literary books (from A as Augustinus to Z as Zarathustra). I like to watch Italian post-war films, New Hollywood and classical Western and much more.
