About Me

ABOUT ME

I think I'm quite open minded, interested in other people's thoughts and ideas about life itself and living each other on this planet. Mutual exchange I really appreciate, going out for a beer, listening to music, staying outside and so on… being cooperative might also be one of my features.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As I belief to give and to take is a good way for coexistence.

Interests

Making music might be the most important interest, as e.g. playing guitar and piano. I like drawing and painting in the nature a lot; generally I like being outside as often it is possible. Travelling especially by sailing ship's is a big love. If there is the time I enjoy reading books. I love cooking and I'm interested to get to know to international kitchen. From time to time I enjoy it to write down some lines. Sailing on old ships is with what I spend my regular time in Flensburg right now.
Since one year I share a garden in which I'll spend time in the summer growing vegetables, making bonfire or enjoying the sun. For sure we can go there.
