In general I am a person who always looks on the bright side of life. For me, there is no such thing as sorrows; I somehow manage to enjoy every situation: the stressful ones, the sad ones, … you can learn and take something with you from every single moment in life. Also I would count myself to the more happy humans among the world since the sun shines always and is sometimes only hidden by the clouds or just on the far side of earth.
And whenever there is time I wander around in my thoughts and think about the essential questions: what do you need to be happy, why are we here, what is the answer to the questions in this universe. Sometimes I come to a point where I conclude that 42 fits them best

I also welcome everybody who enters my flat as a friend (but whether we stay friends is a whole different story)!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really would like to know many things about foreign cultures as well as the way of life in the country I am visiting. I also want to improve my language skills.

Interests

I'm interested in many things (technically everything). My main fields of interest are nature (survival stuff, bushcrafting etc.), music (I can play the guitar), tech stuff (general innovation on mobile tech and new technologies and gadgets), languages and photography. Also I have a passion for gaming consoles, especially (and I suppose also only) the ones from Nintendo! And I love maths of course!

Music, Movies, and Books

I really like orchestral music (especially the covers from Walt Ribeiro and the Doctor Who Soundtrack by Murray Gold) and mostly songs from the 50s up to know (The Alan Parsons Project, Toto, …) I don't really have a special genre.

I watched a few series (Dexter, Doctor Who, Big Mouth) and love comedy (e.g. Groundhog-Day, Airplane!, Moana) as well as James Bond movies. Other movies I like are all three "Back to the Future" parts.

Once I read many books. Today I rarely find the right book for me, but when I do I spent a considerable amount of time reading. My favourite books so far are "Tom Sawyer & Huckleberry Finn" and "The Hunger Games".

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some basics in photography and show you my fascination for mathematics (I‘ve got a few slide-rules, an adding machine)
