Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Working at Opel (GM Powertrain) at the moment, up to travel the US pretty soon though.
ABOUT ME
Open minded globetrotter. I like to meet new people and get along with nearly everyone. I'm working at the moment but will never give up travelling. Next station: Florida :)
My life in short: ;)
Born
Grew up
Got screwed up
Studied something useful
Went to Australia to get even more screwed up
Started working at Opel as an engineer (OMG I got sensible :D)
PHILOSOPHY
Go your way and don't care too much what others say. Be friendly and open to others and you'll be welcome everywhere.
And of course: Don't forget to travel the world :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I would like to offer my couch to nice and interesting people who like to meet other interesting people. :) The only thing is, that I do have just an air matraze and a sleeping bag to offer.
I am interested in YOUR couch as well when I'm travelling around of course. :)

Music, Movies, and Books
There are quite a few films I like, like Pulp Fiction, Snow falling on cedar, About Schmidt etc.
I like to listen to bands like Foo Fighters, Jet, Goo Goo Dolls, Death Cab for Cutie, Jan Delay, Phil Collins, Queen and many more. When I go out, I don't care too much about what is playing.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Diving at the great bareer reef and some other places
24000km around Australia with a '89 Mitsubishi Pajero and at least 1000km of it offroad! Yes, that was great! :) Getting bogged, digging free, crossing rivers and going to places where not everybody is able to go to, good fun! :)
Have done loads of places in Thailand, like the mask festival "Phi Tha Kon" in Dan Sai / Loi, Kanchanaburi and Chiang Mai.
Teach, Learn, Share
Do you play guitar? Great! Lets have some fun with it. :) And if you are good I would like to learn some ruse from you. If you are a beginner I might even be able to show you something. I would say my play is good enough for a camp fire. :)
Countries I’ve Visited
Belgium, Czech Republic, France, Poland, United Kingdom
Countries I’ve Lived In
Australia, Germany, Switzerland, Thailand
