My mother was a Swedish, my father an Austrian. This is the reason why I was born in Sweden and later, with 15 years, we moved to Austria.
Traveling around is a passion as long as I can remember - with backpack or in my small Volkswagen-bus.
I have a close relation to nature and I take care of the resources. It makes me sad, that our beautiful planet is destroyed due to e.g. consumer society, avarice, ...
Getting older might make me a little wiser. But even if my body is getting older, my soul keeps young.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

As I´m interested in more or less everything it´s beautiful to meet people from other parts of the world or people having been to other countries and communicate with them.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

As I traveled to Tibet - via Nepal - in 1987, I was so excited and my soul was so deeply touched, that this experience influenced my life forever.
In the year 2014 I traveled to Peru with a small group of very nice people. My interest and passion for other countrysides, cultures and the history was marvelously fed as we were accompanied by a shaman.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

As I´m a passionated photographer (amateur) since many, many years, it´s nice to speak about that.
In numerous photos the basic principle "less is more" dominates. This principle is important for my life as well.
I use to say that I´m taking photos with my soul.
Compare Henri Cartier-Bresson:
"Das eine Auge des Fotografen schaut durch den Sucher, das andere, das geschlossene, blickt in die eigene Seele."
("One of the photographers eyes looks through the viewfinder, the other one, the closed one, looks into the own soul")
I like to cook - especially together with other people.
I like to participate in discussions about interesting subjects.
