CURRENT MISSION

find out what life is about...

ABOUT ME

i love to get lost in other worlds, no matter what kind they are...
i'm quite a political man and try to live my life according to my own values.
trying to expand my knowledge of things, i'm always keen on learning.
some would say i'm way to serious. but i've just got a strange humour...

PHILOSOPHY

try to avoid judgements.
keep self control.
never do what you wouldn't like other people to do / your freedom ends, where the freedom of your brother begins.
forget everything, because there is nothing as absurd as human existence!
forget this as well, it's absurd, like everything. enjoy your life in harmony and peace!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i surf, i host, i share
(together with my girlfriend Carmen and our two children)

Interests

i'm obsessed with reading. novels, stories, poetry, stuff about philosophy, history, different cultures and religions, sciences...
working with my own hands is great, especially with wood or in the garden, trying to succes with my first steps in self-supply.
enjoying myself in nature, preferably while hiking or trekking, could fill my days for years, if i wouldn't find so many other things to do...

• poetry
• gardening
• reading
• hiking
• history
• religion

Music, Movies, and Books

from dostojevskji to camus, from arab and persian literature and poetry to stories about the american indians, it's hard to limitate my interests in reading.
same with music and movies, almost impossible to say...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

the twinkle in the eyes of my daughter, almost every day.

to see how people living in deepest poverty, often seem to be so happy, so relaxed, meanwhile a lot of the wealthier people on this planet seem to pass their time in unhappiness and frustration, even when they have everything.

Teach, Learn, Share

i could share the few wood working techniques i know, could tell you a little bit about gardening.
would love to develop my ideas of a future society or future life together with anybody interested.
we will see, there will probably be something i could learn from you, you could learn from me.
