ABOUT ME

Other people say I´m
funny
honest
interested
a living artist
a nature boy
My daugther says I cannot sing
To describe all of me is impossible, but as anybody, I have all kinds of different shades, which surprise me over and over again. So I´m never bored with myself.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Traveling, and the intercultural exchange that goes with it, opens minds and makes you less prejustice against other cultures/people and opens your eyes to the fact, that YOU are a stranger at first almost everywhere but your home. If you think it to the end, you might say: CS helps to prevend war. On a small scale but..... And CS makes traveling possible even if you don´t have a lot money and is a good way to meet people, which are open-minded, otherwise they wouldn´t be with CS.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The times I hosted people were very nice experiences and
great exchanges. It makes you want more.

Musica, film e libri

movies:" down by law" , Jim Jarmusch;Chinatown;Lammbock;Schwarze Katze weisser Kater and many more

music: all kinds of music,depends on my mood,but it has to be good,of course; I still have, and allways will have more vinyl than CD´s;

if I only could take 10 music-arists on a deserted island it would be:
Doobie Brothers, Doors, Kate Bush, Prince, some Jazz: Sonny Rollins maybe, Led Zeppelin, Leonard Cohen,
Curtis Mayfield, Nina Simone, I leave 1 open for later
there is also so so many supergood modern stuff, but the music I grew up with is out of competition

books: "Der Schwarm" Frank Schätzing; Thomas Mann"Der Zauberberg";Books about Wood and art;Die Säulen der Erde; Books about social dropouts; and many more

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

birth of my daugther and son
encounters with wild animals like bears,sharks and humans
really good waves ( for example in portugal )
beauty of nature and the mood of eternity it gives me
bungee-jumping into a canyon in new zealand
swimming with dolphins
touching a sea-cucumber, so incredibly soft

Insegna, impara, condividi

Besides the obvious skills everyone has and can share,
it is in the eye of the beholder, what you can learn from someone else. The more open you are, the more you can learn and also give.

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

All I have experienced so far and want to in the future.
Also I can cook very, very good mashed potatoes.
