About Me

CURRENT MISSION

get something important done

ABOUT ME

My superpower is to get bored very easily.

I think great things happen when people get bored with the obvious. People that have a very low boredom threshold get up and do something to get out of it. And that something tends to be what makes humanity strive: inventions, works of art, revolutionary technology, philosophical breakthroughs.

PHILOSOPHY

Will tell you later.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just moved to Berlin.
I plan to join a large CS-house that where we will host couchsurfers continuously. I'll post here once we have found a place we like and moved in.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been a couchsurfer with members PANNDORAH, MRBLURGE and SASSYREDHEAD. Great experiences! I have not host anyone yet. This will change very soon as we get our CS-house project up and runnning.

Interests

I like meeting new people, and organizing parties for friends. Fortunately, I have very good friends that live in different parts of the world.

When Iâ

  • arts
  • tango
  • capoeira
  • cooking
  • partying
  • technology

Music, Movies, and Books

Magic realism: Murakami (sexy, all), Marquez (all), Blindness by Jose Saramago.
Bendis & Maleev, a synesthesic experience!
Short stories: I really like those. Papini boldly argued that one must write badly, but his story 'the clock stopped at seven' is a masterpiece.
Try Murakami´s short story "100% perfect girl". It´s online!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Won a short-story national award while still a teenager... and never wrote a single line after that!

Teach, Learn, Share

Cooking, Capoeira, Salsa. I would surprise you in any of these. I recently started tango, so no, not there yet.

Countries I’ve Visited

Canada, France, Italy, Sweden, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In

Germany, Netherlands, United Kingdom, United States
