Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
i wanna see beautiful things.beautiful could possibly mean everything.
ABOUT ME
i live in leipzig to get some education in graphic design and illustration.
i was born in dresden in eastern germany.
love caring about books,drawing and writing in tiny books, keyboards,xylophones, hot chocolate, taking pictures and getting to know new places, its people. traveling is somewhat really essential, it makes me calm.
i hope i will never give up doing things with paper, letters, pictures and pens.
PHILOSOPHY
i'm a very modest person.being modest and friendly and kind is what i try to be, from time to time i like the opposite.
nobody is that different that you couldn't understand them just a little bit.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
did couchsurfing in Ireland, scotland and england, norway, latvia, lithuania, estonia and finland.
i hosted two times in leipzig so far. the room i had before where i live now was too small.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
i always slept better than in my own bed and met some amazing people.
hospitality makes me happy. i don't wanna know what i would have missed without all these expericences. i even stayed in a flat in belfast with only the dog of the host, who sort of fell in love with me.
Interests
seeing things:nice things, strange things, wild things, quiet things, odd things, natural things, edible things. traveling serves this quite well. my camera likes taking pictures. my pencils do, too.
overlooking cities. hiking in untouched areas. drinking coffee in cosy places.the sea. wine. animals. pommes. and i like music pretty much.

Music, Movies, and Books
my kind of music starts from blur david bowie patti smith cure around in britain of the 70s, sweden, norway and iceland and never has a final destination.
i'm heavily into this darker 80ies dancing stuff. solid space!
movies shouldnt be 100% funny or 100% sad, better something in between. woody allen. monty python's jabberwocky. and shaun of the dead, of course. i've got an imaginary picture of wes anderson above my head. love scary stuff, too. alien. hausu.
on the bookshelf. i read a lot if the layout doesn't distract me. hermann hesse, truman capote, stefan zweig.i liked "everything is illuminated" by jonathan safran foer. and i love comics(not necessarily with spiders or bats or other heroes, pictures and texts go hand in hand.
uh, beavis and butthead
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
i once climbed up a tree so high that i was too scared to go down again.
a few years ago i was walking on this massive dune at the polish seaside. it is so huge i thought i was in a desert and i lost my way of course.
in ireland i did a lot of things in this manner, it's a good country for that.in this tiny tiny village at the westcoast of ireland i slept on a field with lots of angry bulls.thanks god i wasnt killed (which has to do with the fact that i didnt know about the bulls until i left and they didn‘t know about me either)
Teach, Learn, Share
you should try to roll your tongue and then blow through it, it really sounds like a spooky owl.it needs practise and everybody thinks i'm a freak but it is possible, maybe it has something to do with the fact that i'm left-handed who knows
