About Me

CURRENT MISSION

live in the moment

ABOUT ME

i am a definately a practical hands-on person but i do have a heart and a brain
i love to be outdoors (doesn't mean there is nothing to do indoors)
my interests and skills are wide spread (hard to cover it all here)

PHILOSOPHY

don't take it all so serious (and personally for that matter)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

experienced both sides
CS to me is not just about a cheap place to crash
it's about connecting with people, so there has to be a minimum interest in each other, a minimum curiosity, a connection
if not i'd rather stay somewhere else and take the chance of meeting strangers which might be more "productive"
i don't judge but i select
it's about sharing experiences,
exchange,
complete each other,
find the missing piece in the big picture

Interests

all kind of arts,
i like to create things,
snowboarding, sailing, windsurfing, outdoor-stuff,
and i would just love to get to fly a helicopter
honestly i think my list is endless, the days are just to short
if you are passionate about whatever it is YOU are doing, it's pretty easy to spark my curiousity cos only if you tried things once, experienced it yourself are you able to form your own opinion about it, are you able to decide if you want to pursue whatever it is, dig deeper into the matter or not
