About Me

CURRENT MISSION To believe in the unbelievable

NOTICE: I TRY TO ANSWER ALL REQUESTS, BUT I GET QUITE A LOT THESE DAYS, SO IF I DON'T ANSWER RIGHT AWAY I AM PROBABLY BUSY. I also rent out on airbnb, so they have first priority. But I still have couchsurfers from time to time, so don't be scared away! :D I usually don't Couchhost for couples. If you want to stay at my place as a couple you can find me on airbnb - or write me here first, but don't expect a free couch as a couple. Some personal facts about me: - I'm an outgoing person and I love meeting new people. - Everyday is a new day, and everyday I am a new person. - I do not believe in God, but I would love to hear why you do. - I love to pretend that I go to the gym on a regular basis. - At least one out of ten things I say, are not true - or just a joke. - I am not gay, but I can still watch a musical. - If I was blue I would be charming smurf. - I laugh at jokes before the punchline. - I am nice to people, who are nice to me. - I own a time machine. PHILOSOPHY A coin has two sides. A human being has a lot more. What is so freakingly awesome about people is our ability to change, to grow, to become better people. And sometimes it's really awesome how some people choose not to change.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couchsurfed a few times, and enjoyed it every minute. I had a couple of couchsurfers in my home, and I would love to see more of you guys. Also this year I want to get more involved in couchsurfing.

Interests

I play music - mostly piano, but I also sing and play the guitar. I don't practise it a lot now, since I spend my time teaching music and don't have time for my own. I am interested in a lot of things, and try to read books on many subjects. I like to go out to meet new people.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy many kinds of music, like Rock, reggae/ska, salsa, flamenco, classical and much more, as long as it has something to offer me. I am not a big fan of one band anymore, but these names in particular have meant/mean something to me.
Portishead, Massive Attack, Regina Spektor, Pink Floyd, Seal, Queen, Kashmir, Kings of convenience, Oh land... much more

Writers I recently read: Haruki Murakami, Mario Vargas Llosa, Svend-Aage Madsen... and then mostly nonfiction.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Last summer I walked to the top of a freakin' mountain in 5700 m height with head ache, and nausea and a desire to just lie down and never get up for 6 hours. The view and the emotions when I finally reached the top is the most intensive and real moment I have experienced.
And my whole trip that summer in South America was so amazing. I recommend everyone to go there.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am fascinated by the human brain. Remembering is an important part of learning things and being creative. I can teach you some memory techniques and some knowledge about our amazing brain as well as some good ways to be more creative in your life.
I also teach piano. So if you want to learn something, I would exchange some of my knowledge for some of your knowledge.
