CURRENT MISSION
ABOUT ME
In the last three years, I` ve studied Musicology and Art History and Philosophy, and now, I` m working in the Ars Electronica Center in Linz, a museum that dedicates itself to examine the social impact of new technologies.
Now to me as a person: I` m interested in no matter what, which means that I want to know about a lot of things from science to how to fry correctly.
I` m reliable and sensitive, I like to think things through. I like to talk to people, but sometimes I just want to be quiet. I like music a lot, that` s why I want to become a musician.. I play the drums, the guitar and I sing.
PHILOSOPHY
I think, it' s good to be sometimes conscient, that we actually don' t know, where we come from, where we' re going and who we are. We sometimes forget, that life itself is a marvel. Not in the sense, that it' s very positive or very good, nor that it' s bad, but just that it is, and we don' t know why.
Being aware of that resembles to watching the stars at night: it changes something in the way we live our life..
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
CouchSurfing is an exceptional project. After I had surfed for the first time, i felt a sense of trust to humanity.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Most of my CouchSurfing experiences are passive ones: There were travelers, who visited my home town, and who were surfing the couches of my friends and brother. Actually, I was actively couchsurfing only one time, namely in Bologna, Italy. While my host, Francesco, took me to several concerts, I would finally find my next girlfriend...
Another remarkable experience was, when two Spanish girls, that were travelling through Europe in their holidays, began to talk to a friend of mine in a train. My friend invited them, and only after that, they became couchsurfers and spent another three days in my friends house.
Interests
I' m interested in music! And in philosophy. And in going out, I have to say. I' m also interested in different life- styles, different cities, different parts of the world.
And I' m interested in sports cars, too. And in quite many types of sports (favourite: soccer).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Good question. I was once walking through Freistadt- in the nature! But in order to know why, we' ve got to meet!
Teach, Learn, Share
I' m good at Latin, French or Mathematics. So if you want, I can teach you anything in these fields. Of course, I can give you your first drum lesson! Or guitar od music theory lessons. And I can show you how to cook traditional Austrian pastry, for example one called "Apfelstrudel".
