About Me

Well, what is there to tell? Probably just another hairy human creature on planet earth. I could tell you, that I grew up on the countryside. In the absence of friends I was drawn into a world full of phantasy. A difference between reality and the vast realm of dreams didn't exist. I listened to the sweet voice of revolution, experienced social exclusion, explored swaying the ineffable imagination of love and learned about the flight of infinity in opposite directions, the value of objectivity and the tremendous meaning of absurdity. I tasted the ambiguity of life, slowly moved forward and crashed against a wall of consciousness. We need a slight change of words. I slipped into being conscious. Here we start again. But now differently. :)

As you might see, I love words. I love reading books, but only the ones I don't understand. And I love writing, especially when I feel free to leave the things to be. And I fell in love with travelling. Not so much in the sense of seeing landmarks or taking pictures or collecting stamps in the passport. I have only one aim in life. I keep gathering the scattered pieces of an idea what it means to be human. What it means to be alive. What it needs to take back freedom. What it needs to stop fighting. What it needs to finally open up the eyes. And while doing so I become a part of the culture and family of each country. And more so I'm lucky to nibble ingenious unknown dishes, learn and practise new ways of perception and being responsible.

Aside from this grown up and serious matters I'm still a child. I love talking nonsense, sometimes I even do mischief and I love hanging like a young god. Fortunately I see life as a good ongoing joke. So there is always a roguish smile upon my face.

So, what's going to happen, when we finally meet up? Since I was living in Madrid for the past five months, I probably give you a hug and two kisses (on the cheek). If that's too much, I can offer a short wave with both hands and keep the distance. Anyway, if you haven't stopped reading this little manifesto against Couchsurfing (¿wtf?) up this point, you probably know already what our encounter will lead to.

If you're still not sure about whether I would be a suitable visitor to your humble Palace, here's the typical Cs happy meal of verbal vomit: I like travelling... I'm clean... Upon entering your house I'll take off my shoes and start behaving like a common dull guest. Which means: simulate interest with typical questions, offer to become your cook for the time being, clean up my shit like a well tamed dog and try to be gone during the day. And the most important: I'm a beautiful woman in my 20s.

Do you understand? (:)

Music, Movies, and Books

Pink Floyd is the pure stuff and so timeless, could listen to it all life long. Afterwards Reggae and all kind of Electronic Noise. DRIVE / Blade Runner 2049 is a movie and different, I’m into that crazy mix of tranquility and narcotic sound. What We Do In The Shadows and American Hustle! There you go and have fun. Books: Infinite Jest is mind-blowing and a changer, Man without Qualities goes for the vibes of life, The Count of Monte Cristo makes you wait patiently, The Brothers Karamazov will teach you a little something about the precipice of your mind and the best at the end, The little Prince.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For some reasons I once did the naked run in Belfast and got caught by the bobbies. Instead of putting me into jail they gave me a lift back to the hostel. :D

Teach, Learn, Share

Where are we going? Always home. Always home. (Novalis)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Back in Germany I studied special education for children with mental disability. So I can share informations and advices and some tricks, if you are interested. And I’ll put a smile upon your face, cause I love talking nonsense and being a loony fellow. :P
