CURRENT MISSION

Enjoying life! And writing my next book :)

ABOUT ME

I am a quiet, self-contented person who loves working and to contribute to something bigger.

In my spare time, I enjoy listing to music and cooking. I love to host friends and strangers and I find talking about life in general and about almost every topic one comes up with rewarding since I am interested in a lot of things.

I go for a walk in the woods almost every single day. When I can get away for a few days, I enjoy hiking and the view from mountain tops. And of course, I love traveling to the most remote places.

I try to live in a sustainable way by buying mostly organic and local and by refusing to own anything I don't really need. I enjoy living in a cohousing community with 70+ others from the age of 0 up to 75.

PHILOSOPHY

Our habits are your biggest chance: By changing our habits, we are able to change our whole lives.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like the idea of changing the world one couch at a time: Meeting strangers, hosting them and sharing our thoughts and life for a few days is an inspiring experience and always worth the effort. Please start your request with the word "Mondscheinsonate" so I know, you've read my profile. Thanks!

Interests

I'd like to learn more about your experiences and perspective on life, on love, on work, on policy, on traveling... and whatever you will possibly find interesting and worthwhile to talk about!

Music, Movies, and Books

ON MUSIC:
I enjoy a variety of music: e.g. the orchestral works of J.S. Bach, Mozart and Haydn; piano solo recordings of Keith Jarrett and most songs of ABBA, Elton John and Amy Macdonald...

ON BOOKS:
I prefer writing over reading.

ON MOVIES:
I especially enjoy watching movies which are based on true events: The King's Speech, Bridge of Spies, Thirteen Days, The Railway Man...
