CURRENT MISSION

Take all experience you can get!

ABOUT ME

Alright...well..who am I? It is hard to describe..oh man I never thought about that!
I graduated from school last year and decided to "take a year off" and go to the USA because I think it is great to travel around and experience new lifestyles and cultures. (Maybe also because I don't know what to study yet.)
My friends would probably say that I'm a little bit crazy, but not like crazy....it's more like crazy! Sometimes I talk a lot..oh ja, especially about useless things, nobody would ever think about. (I figured, that it is easier in German). I like to try new stuff out (that's why I know that I don't like pumpkin pie) and do everything what might be fun. I don't like stress, but I do like Music especially Jazz. (I know that doesn't make sense!)

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a lot like Jazz - it's best when you improvise! (Thanks Flavia!)

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed now for a couple of times, in DC, Rapid City, Missoula, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, LA, Las Vegas... and it is the best experience I have ever had. Only awesome people, they show you where you should go and you don't feel like a tourist!

Interessen

I love Jazz (maybe that's why I found myself in the US?!). I play my horn (Saxophone) quite a lot. (can you say that?) When I listen to great Sax-Soli I freak out.
What else? I like to party...I was in boarding school, I mean you get used to it.
And I just like to do crazy things.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

ok, first of all I have to say that I don't read very much. I wish I would read more books. Maybe they don't like me. Anyway my favorites: Perfume (Patrick Suskind) and "Die dunkle Seite des Mondes" (Martin Suter)
As I said I really like Jazz, especially Funk. I don't think it makes sense to list all my favorite Jazz musician, but I have to list one: MACEO PARKER
I also listen to Ska and Reggae. Eclectronic is best to party! But I'm good with most genre...
Yeah, I like Movies:
The Big Lebowski, Requiem For A Dream, A Clockwork Orange, Trainspotting, Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas, The Educators.....and the good old Lion King!

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Did a Road Trip 7000 miles thru the US...couchsurfed every night and met the coolest people!
Played Saxophone on the street in New Orleans!

Lehren, lernen, teilen

A Blues has 12 bars!!!!!!! I think I could tell you a little bit about Jazz and improvising.
Oh, and I recognized already on my trip, that there is a whole different culture in how to party in the US and Germany....so I could show you how the Germans do it - you will like it, believe me! (No, it is not true, we don't drink warm beer)
