The best adjective to describe, I think (or hope;)) is curiosity.
That's also the reason why I love to get around and meet new people. Because I am always interested to see things from a new, for me unknown point of view.
"There are more things in heaven and earth,
Than are dreamt of in your philosophy." as Shakespear wrote. But my lives aim is to narrow this gap. So my motto is: Push the boundaries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.” Mark Twain

People make place, that's why I do not only want to see pretty places, but also want get in touch with the people who are living there.

Music, Movies, and Books

Literatur - especially everything with a connection to history.
My favorite authors are Heinrich Mann, Döblin, Houellebecq, Francis Lelord, Hemingway
Favorite Movies. Donnie Brasco - because of Al Pacino and Jonny Deep
Das Leben der Anderen (The live of the others) - because I was born in the former GDR, so somehow it belongs to my personal history
Birdman - just brilliant
