Meeting people, getting different opinions and views on everything, learn about countries and cultures and share a bit of myself too.

音乐、电影和书籍

Music:
Since I've been playing music myself I went through quite a lot of different genres. Starting with pop music from all over the last 5 decades I radically swiched to Punk and Hard Rock at some point, then discovered Progressive Rock and stayed there for a long time (Porcupine Tree, ELP, Dream Theater, Flower Kings, Neal Morse,....) and lately discovered Jazz (Herbie Hancock, Pat Metheny, Tord Gustavsen, Dixie Dregs,....). Quite constant through all those years was Folk (Paul Simon, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, Ben Howard, Mumford and Sons, Traditional Songs,....).
I've played piano since I'm 7 and guitar since I'm 14. From time to time I sing and play the mandolin.

Books:
Some life-changing books for me are "Focault's Pendulum" by Umberto Eco, "The Picture Of Dorian Gray" by Oscar Wilde, "Siddharta" by Hermann Hesse among others.
I also read classical German and American literature, popular science some Fantasy and SciFi stuff, a lot of Chemistry Textbooks,....

Movies:
Favourite is probably "Big Fish" by Tim Burton. But I'm not a movie or TV series enthusiast at all.
