CURRENT MISSION

Travel in New Zealand and California

ABOUT ME

I'm sort of down-to-earth (I mean I've never been to prison or something), open-minded and spontaneous - you can go out and have some party-time with me, challenge me in tennis or whatever sport you like... or simply sit down and have a relaxed talk all day long - those completely spontaneous chats are the best if you know what I mean...my English is not that bad, but you have to find out by youself.

I suppose I just try to do good in life, not being phony or something... pursuit of happiness and that stuff ;-)

PHILOSOPHY

Form is temporary, class is permanent.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well, once upon a time I decided to travel in New Zealand and the U.S., and after I departed all of a sudden I heard about that CS thing - so I guess I am an absolute newbie at present!

Interests

SPORTS: Tennis, soccer, skiing
Traveling, party, going to movies and all that usual stuff...
Relax with some good books, listen to nice music - guess I'm a little bit lazy sometimes (But NEVER BORING!)
... (Semi)Professional beer-brinker like every German - we grow up with it, don't mess with us ;-)

Music, Movies, and Books

I hated Avatar... don't exactly know why, but for some reason I found that movie everyone "loved" sort of trivially boring...
And yes, of course there are several movies I love - but listing them would make me sit here all night and bore you ;-)

I like American literature, especially the "great" novels as e.g. The Great Gatsby, A Catcher in the Rye... and David Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest (damn good!)

There's no certain kind of music I prefer. But for party, Electro is great!

Oh and I really enjoy "Californication"
