CURRENT MISSION

Visit Iceland - settle into my new city, Berlin!

ABOUT ME

Almost everything interests me, especially people and their different cultures. But really, everything.

A good friend once described me as
"a usually relaxed and averagely social guy."
So i guess that's his way of saying: "easy going" and "can get along with everyone" ;)

I just moved to Berlin from Amsterdam a couple of months ago.
Unfortunately, since my new house does not have a living room i can't host you, but if i have time i can show you some nice places i'm discovering in this city!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I Couch-Surfed a few times through the site, plus a few times the old fashioned way.Me and my flatmates back when i lived in Amsterdam started hosting CouchSurfers about three years ago and had a great time with all of them!

Interessen

My work is also my hobby so i spend a lot of my time designing and creating art installations, smartphone applications and involve myself in random projects i enjoy.

Besides that of course, i like to go to the eventual party, visit a festival or just go out for a beer with friends.
I also like to go mountain biking, snowboarding and sometimes sailing.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

These are some of the bands that i like to listen to:M83, Fritz Kalkbrenner, Fleet Foxes, Thom Yorke, Rone, Mew, Paul Kalkbrenner, Sufjan Stevens, Fink, Daft Punk, Miike Snow, Chet Baker, White Lies, Karde

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

A few years ago we made a stop while travelling at a small village in northern Greece and were invited to their festival the next day, so we decided to stay.
It was in the forest in a very simple setting(just a few benches and some fires to cook the food) but with some of the friendliest people I have ever met.
