About Me

Artist, Nerd, Nature-boy, Whovian...

I'm a licensed graphic Artist and animal attendant currently taking care for the cats at the local animal shelter in the east of vienna.
In my spare time I paint a lot. My usual media is acrylic color on canvas. My interests in art are pretty wide-ranging for that I call myself a Renaissance person.
As long as I can remember I've been interested in everything what happens in nature and every single form of art. I'm also interesed in architecture, religions, history and a lot more stuff.
I would love to have a space such as an old factory hall to experimentalize and express my art while other artists do the same by my side.

I love meeting new people although I tend to talk less at first and act a bit shy I seem to find myself friends everywhere. I'm a very open-minded person. People call me calm, funny, plain sailing and harmless. I'm obviously a geek and puddle around in other dimensions most of the time which makes me a bit naive and needy sometimes. (that's from my mothers side) It's almost impossible to make me angry I'm far to patient for that. If it happends none the less you certainly won't know it anyway. I tend to be not as polite as I should be but I never mean it! And if you ask me straight for anything, like doing the dishes or so on I won't complain at all. It's just as I said that I sometimes drift away in my thoughts and don't know what I actually do. I'm a pretty neat person actually. I recall my aunt once asked my mother if she could borrow me for helping her cleaning.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travelled the very first time on my own last year. Took a plane alone for the first time and tried Airbnb and CouchSurfing for the first time.
Every experience was simply great and I want to see more places and meet more people!

Music, Movies, and Books

If you ask me what my favourite song is I'd say "Objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are" - from Meat Loaf. There are a lot more but that one is the best example.

"Into the Wild" is one of my favourite films. "Priscilla" one of my favourite queer movies.

"Good Omens" from Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman is a book I simply love.
