About Me

CURRENT MISSION

undermine authority

ABOUT ME

I love music, records, concerts, travelling, cooking, films, books, insects, nice drinks, museums, old buildings, any activity that relates to water, all dairy products and meeting people who share some of these interests.

PHILOSOPHY

I never wear a watch. It's always "now".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment I am living in Saarbrücken - hardly anyone wants to come here -although we're really close to Paris, Luxembourg, Strasbourg, Brussels, etc. I'll be back in Berlin next year...so I guess more people wanna crash at our place then :) However, do not underestimate the coolness of small towns.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only positive experiences. In really every country I did it people were really welcoming and nice.

Interests

Above all: records and concerts, films (film noir, 60s, 70s, french, spanish, scandinavian but tons of other stuff, too) and travelling
