About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trip to Africa. I am very curious about this country

ABOUT ME

I am a very open minded, friendly and sometimes shy person. Always trying to be positive.
I love the sun, the sea, the mountains. Green, brown and grey nature. Classical and new or modern music. People and this live...

PHILOSOPHY

Simple and with quality. There are enough complicated things.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies:
I like Wes Anderson movies

Series:
The night manager
Goliath
Queer as folk
The Knick
White collar
Breaking bad
Game of thrones
... Actually I am looking for less dramatic but more joyful series. I would appreciate very much to get help in that direction.

Books, I am open for any recommendation:
Womit ich nie gerechnet habe
Der Dirigent (Schostakowitsch in Leningrad),

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ones, I bought a very old Cadillac, a stretchlimousine. Actually I am still a Student and I don't need a car, especially not a stretched Cadillac. It is a real mess to fix this rusty ship of a car. I am open for any help!
I like the feeling to drive it. Hopefully one day I will pass the TÜV and then my Caddy will be free again... For now it is just standing in the rain.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my knowledge about music. It is like a language. On the contrary I would like to know about your experiences in life or adventures you have been through.

What I Can Share with Hosts

my couch, blankets, pillows etc., the shower, the kitchen, food, drinks etc.
