About Me

I'm a software engineer who likes to travel. Typically I save up all my vacation and take one 3½-week long trip through Europe. Wave-Gotik-Treffen & Fête de l'absinthe de Boveresse have become regular stops.
The rest of the year I pass time with soccer, board games, maybe a hike or camping, goth club, drinks with friends, or whatever else sounds good.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

... because I started traveling internationally in 2010 and haven't stopped since and I don't always end up in places where I know anyone.

Interests

Well ... see "About Me".

Music, Movies, and Books

EBM, Industrial, Metal, maybe some punk, beatnik-jazz or whatever Morhphine is, or even some classical.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One?!?
Train ride through the Austrian Alps? ... kinda on accident. I was only on an hour of sleep when I bought the train ticket.
Going to WGT-19 (Wave-Gotik-Treffen)? ... and then going 2 more years in a row. ... so far. Make that 6.
Finding my way up into the Swiss hills to Gruyères to see the Museum HR Giger and the Giger Bar? :-D Rather unreal.
And then doing it again with a different friend.
Going to the burning of Zozobra in Santa Fe, NM, US every year I can. :-)
Hanging out in Val-de-Travers, the center of absinthe, for more than a week around the Fête de l'Absinthe de Boveresse with the most amazing people.
Spending the weekend on the east shores of Ireland on the Burren during an NSK State event.
...
Ooooor ... ?
