About Me

CURRENT MISSION

solve the mind-body problem

ABOUT ME

I never thought I would study philosophy. Now I do since three years and it became the main part of my life. I thought philosophical problems were not solvable and so philosophy meaningless, but I was mistaken. Now I follow my drive to analyse any puzzling thought that I come across, mainly concerning psychological matters.
I am open-minded and like new experiences. I like to dance and to read through libraries and book stores.

PHILOSOPHY

Work on yourselve, develop but don't forget the happiness that is available already now.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In the moment I can offer no couch. When I travel somewhere I ask people that I find interesting for a couch.

Interests

Philosophy (mainly of Wittgenstein and his successors), Psychology (as concerns personal development and overcoming of individual shadows and difficulties), Meditation, playing football, basketball and riding my bike.

Music, Movies, and Books

Fight Club, Avatar, don't remember more in the moment. But I like good films. "Philosophical investigations", "the philosophical foundations of neuroscience", "Intention", "Narziss and Goldmund", "Siddharta"

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

flying with an experienced glider-pilot. We made loopings, screws and flew upside down. Doing 5g I could not even lift my arm anymore. After it I felt sick.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach breathing- and body-scan meditation and I can sometimes solve philosophical issues with the later Wittgensteins method. Although I don't know all the philosophical schools and methods, I might say something wise to many philosophical/puzzling issues.
