CURRENT MISSION

Living a good live on the countryside of South Germany

ABOUT ME

I live in Aach, near the Bodensee.
Often when I say I do Animation, people say "Wow, you are working on cruise ships, animating my parents not to get bored?"... Well, I never tried that :-) I rater animate computer generated characters like Pixar does.
I'm 37 with two lovely kids around me.
We also have two goats (named Frieda and Berta), 2 bee hives with maybe 60k bees.
After a little warming-up time I can be very funny and I'm always in a very good mood.

My wife Annette, who traveled with me around the world in 161 days, is an Interior Designer. She's very lovely and we are having a great time together.

I love to learn new crafts (good to live in an old house where you can improve a lot if things if you like), I design papercraft animals big and small.

PHILOSOPHY

Imagine this is your only life. Don't waste it - use it! Do the best you can while you are alive.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing and hosting from time to time.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couch-surfed some years ago in Spain and New Zealand. Was a great experience!

兴趣

Lot's of sports (rock climbing, swimming, bicycle, jogging, slacklining), watching movies.
Apart from that I love playing the piano, talking to interesting people and taking pictures.
My wife and I love animals. We've been volunteers in Costa Rica at the Sloth Sanctuary near Cahuita, caring for small and big sloths, getting to know their amazing characters and loved cuddeling with them!
I'm designing original Paper Sculptures both for my onlineshop (Paperwolf) and for business customers (exhibitions, exhibition booth, company mascots).

音乐、电影和书籍

all kind of short films, animated movies, action films with lot's of bang :-)... Books by Ken Follett and Terry Pratchett and many more.

教，学，和分享

I could teach you rockclimbing, slacklining, piano, give you insights in computer animation and even teach you unicycling if you've got one :-)
I know how to form Dorodango spheres

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Some people say, if you live 2 days in Aach, it feels like 4 days holiday.
