CURRENT MISSION

being a teacher and teach and teach how to teach and learn and learn how to teach and teach how to learn.

ABOUT ME

i'm an enthusiastic and optimistic little goblin wearing colourful clothes and having always a little smile on my face. i got a lot of power but enjoy chill-time as well. i'm not really serious so i like to laugh and make jokes, but we could also sit in your kitchen, or mine, or on a stone in the mountains, drinking wine (or anything else) and talking about god and the world for hours :)

PHILOSOPHY

"everything you want to light inside other people needs to burn inside yourself."
"i'm rather an optimist that is wrong than a pessimist that is right."
"life you only understand backwards, but you live it forward."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i like to travel very spontaneously, so many couchsurfers couldn't provide shelter when i asked just a day before arriving.
but when you love to hitchhike and hop trains there's no real possibility to ask for a couch in advance, cause you don't really know when you're arriving at the place you want to arrive. so all you can do is hope for people that reply to last-minute-requests.

and that's me. i'm open to everybody. i don't care when, how or where you're arriving - if you need a warm place to sleep in dresden, just write me a message and hope that i read my emails! i don't like technology (of course i have to praise modern inventions, but still can't avoid to avoid them), so i don't really carefully scroll through my emails.

but SOMETIMES you're cool, and you means YOU, and i can read and feel that you are easy-going, then i read carefully;
and SOMETIMES i got time as well -
THAN you hope for luck and we'll meet in Dresden!

and... of course, i prefer last-minute-requests, because i don't know a week in advance what i'm doing ;)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

[on the road, usa 2009:] well... my requests are always a bit.. late; sometimes as recently as i arrived the city. i just want to say THANK YOU to everybody who didn't mind and offered me his home anyway! great spontaneous people!

Interests

nearly everything on this world:
listening to music. playing music.
sitting on a rooftop. watching the sun going down.
snowboarding on high mountains at sunny weather.
swimming in a lake at nighttime.
travelling whereever i'd like to be.
hitchhiking (and getting a lift, of course *g*).
making party in [...] and watching the sun rising high.
meeting people - especially in the strangest situations.
walking through a forrest, over mountains or on a field.
sitting in front of a fireplace, drinking, smoking and dreaming.
dancing like an elephant on cocaine. jumping on streets knowing that everbody looks at me.
i like reading books and watching good movies. i like to philosophy about me and my life, the human being or the world we live in (actually i just can't stop thinking). i love to eat, drink and sleep. i love phantastic, unnormal things, such as colourful pictures or surrealistic stories. i love children, they're not as socially fucked up as grown-ups certainly are.
