Hey there! I'm Michael, born and grown up in Munich.
Currently i'm on a sabbatical, travelling around, looking for new impressions and ideas, going to places i haven't been before, meeting new people and just having a good time off.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When travelling, i'm not into tourist programs. I rather want to meet local people, breath the culture, taste the food, hear the language, listen to the music, dance together, have some drinks, see the special places, experience what it's like to live in that particular area and somehow be a part of it.

Interests

One of my biggest pleasures is playing music, especially with others, like i often do at jam sessions in taverns like the Hofbräuhaus f.e.. In addition i do traditional bavarian folk dancing like Polka and Schuhplattln. Besides i'm also interested in juggling and magic tricks (even if i'm not a very talented magician), and i like to do sports like swimming, biking, climbing or martial arts as well.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love to hear and play any kind of selfmade music, like blues, jazz, country, folk or classic. And of course i like to watch movies with friends, visit concerts or read good books - actually it's Noah Gordon: The Physician.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of my most amazing experiences was to walk from Munich to Venice crossing the alps for about 4 weeks with some friends.
I also travelled through bavaria with no money, only with my instruments playin music for food, drinks and a place to sleep. It was just amazing to see, how welcoming all the people were to sing with us and host us in their houses.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I really like to share - time, space, food, experiences, stories, abilities or ideas and i'm always interested in learning new things. So let's do something together like cooking, sports, conversation, music, juggling, having a drink, visiting a concert, learning a language,... i'm curious and open-minded! :)
