CURRENT MISSION

Finding my way

ABOUT ME

I'm outgoing and introverted, responsible and insane. I like open-minded people and they usually like me in return. Other people might find me irritating or like me all the same. However, since I am good at adapting to people and situations, all usually ends well. In any case you might want to read my references, they can probably give you a better picture then I ever could.

PHILOSOPHY

Worrying does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow, it empties today of its strength. This is in fact a stupid calender motto but it nevertheless does hold some truth to itself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm always happy to get to know new people, the more random the encounter the better. Couchsurfing is certainly a good venue to do just that. Giving a bit of a tour of the city and/or show a fellow surfer my favourite spots, it's all in the cards. I'm certainly not too keen on hosting people who just need a free place to crash before leaving early in the morning after attending some event all day/night. However, I've found myself to be partial to the random plea for help, especially last minute, so give it your best shot.

Interests

Reading novels, magazines, newspapers and all kinds of online outlets (the latter mostly about politics and economics), listening to music, watching movies, tv shows and football(soccer), buying (more or less) useful stuff on the internet, going to cafes for great cake, to bars for great Gin and to clubs for great music obviously, making new friends and certainly travelling. The last two usually go hand in hand. I'm also somewhat into (interior) design but only in the way that I like pretty things.

Music, Movies, and Books

Rolling Stones, Radiohead, Kula Shaker, Maximo Park, Michael Franks, Daft Punk, Justice, Guns 'n' Roses, Bombay Bicycle Club, Roosevelt, Queen, Arcade Fire, The Police, Meat Loaf, Tom Petty, Dire Straits, Robyn, David Bowie, Tycho, Art Brut, Cardigans, Tomte, Die Höchste Eisenbahn, The Drums, The Kooks, The Hives, Radical Face, Morcheeba, and many many more
