About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Rockin' out!

ABOUT ME

I love listenig to and making music. And I definately love getting carried away by wonderlust.
I'm interested in all kinds of creativity, and I usually don't walk away from an interesting conversation! I am also very excited about getting to know people and stories from everywhere. But to be honest, it sometimes might be hard to stop me sharing my own stories...

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I haven't participated too much until now. But now that I've moved in with my girlfriend, we're ready to get it started!

Interests

Music, movies, music, books (although I am a very lazy reader), music and things like that. Most important something that has something to do with creativity.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Tim Burton, Bill Murray... Hard to say. A lot of stuff.
Music: Almost everything that has grown and is growing out of punk. Mostly hardcore though. But I also enjoy good jazz, funk, electronic and classic. Gosh, music is way too wide-ranging, I actually can't make any restrictions.
Favourite Bands: Sick Of It All, Death By Stereo, Hot Water Music, Gogol Bordello (!!!), The Living End,...
Books: Irvine Welsh, Jonathan Safran Foer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Touring with my band was pretty amazing! I got to see a lot of places, ways to live and kinds to eat. And bungee jumping!

Teach, Learn, Share

Hm, what can I possibly teach? Maybe a little bit of bass guitar. Or that life gets easier again if you have the heart to ask for help.

I'd love to learn things that are different. Different ways to live, to talk, to act... And I really want to improve my english, especially my horrible german accent!

Share? Share good times.
