CURRENT MISSION

tackling the rumor that good hosts have to be good chefs as well

ABOUT ME

i am in a dilemma. on the one hand, i don't like it when people seem to be too lazy to fill out their profile properly ;) and on the other hand, i don't like to write down thesis about myself.
i think, as human beings in general are quite difficult, it is even more difficult to understand yourself really. i do have a theory for everything... kind of. but most of that homemade in a very basic thoughts brewery... so mainly just brain shit probably... i could also write down some cognition about me and the entire world i got during a mushroom trip. but i guess i couldn't back it up as good any more ;)
i like to think i were an artist although i've hardly ever finished anything...
but still... i generally think, i am not a complicated person :)(although this might seem not to match what i wrote before)
...maybe i am openminded, spontaneous, enthusiastic and cheerful... but maybe i am not
but you are welcome to make your own opinion about my character traits...

PHILOSOPHY

"(...) the absolute absence of burden causes man to be lighter than air, to soar into the heights, take leave of the earth and his earthly being, and become only half real, his movements as free as they are insignificant.

what then shall we choose? weight or lightness?"

- Milan Kundera

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i keep people from sleeping on the street

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

yes

Interests

nearly everything. especially films, music and art in every term...(even a grose rash can get my whole attention for a while.) I like when things don't work and love bad experiences which make a good story afterwards. i enjoy meeting and being with friends who probably are the most important thing about my life. but what makes me happiest is music... although i unfortunately can't play any instrument really. i like dancing a lot, going to clubs and joining concerts, but in the summer my best hobby are berlin's electronic music open airs :D
i enjoy food a lot as well but am a horrible cook. (i am doing very well at the chopping board so i make a very good assistent ;)

i like books a lot as well but somehow it's even more difficult to name one or two. ...is it cheasy to say that bourdieu changed my view on life a lot?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

a nicaraguan boy who gave me a ring in return for.... nothing... just to give it to me...
