CURRENT MISSION

to love the life

ABOUT ME

friendly, interested, flexible,...
I try to live in a simple way, close to nature. I live in a very small village, surrounded from greenlands ans forrests eastward of Bonn (Cologne) in Germany.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet people and get to know the real, "normal" life in other regions of the world.

Interests

I´m interested in nature, hiking, climbing, travelling, differend kinds of handicrafts, for example blacksmithing, making knifes, making bows. My profession is to teach people (adults and kids) in those things in my own workshop.
I like to improvise, to play with differend materials, to recycle old things.
I try to play acoustic guitar and to sing (both is improvable... ;-))
I´m a new at contact impro - but I like it very much!
I drive a 50 years old motorbike.

Music, Movies, and Books

A lot of different music: f.e. Nick Cave, The Doors, Neil Young, Bukahara, Element of Crime, Ben Caplan, and many more...

The film "Into the wild" with the great music of Eddie Vedder.
The old Jim Jarmusch films.

I like different kinds of books, sometimes I read 3 or 4 at the same time, somtimes I read one book over month...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Some years ago I took part at a Vision Quest in Telemark/Norway. Three days and nights alone in nature, only with water, a sleeping bag and a tarpaulin.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to learn every interesting stuff from other people.
You can learn from me different kinds of handicrafts. For example to make an traditional bow or to make a knife (athough I do not travel with my anvil :-) ).
I like to share experiences of a good life...

What I Can Share with Hosts
