About Me

ABOUT ME

Some people say I'm an austere person, some say I’m childish, so I think of my persona as paradoxical as the world is itself, as an open-minded, impulsive, confident and helpful person. ;) I like to think about, discuss and reflect on things, but I'm willed to act more spontanious and experience things more sudden :D

I live in Berlin for the moment working in architecture. I read books on different topics that appeal to me. So there will be always some literature around at my place. I listen to much music of diverse origin and even do some myself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I only have some insulating mat for now, but can offer blankets, a sleeping bag, pillows and warm tea.

Berlin is a good spot to go out. I've got some favourite bars and clubs to show you if thats possible timewise, but you can always find new spots and areas around here. As I'm working most of the time I cant promise anything, but there will be some time to show you around in the evenings. I know many parts of the city pretty precise as I love to just walk into unknown backyards to take pictures and see how the city develops and lives. So, not having grown up here, I could even show you the (in some eyes) more ugly and rude, but maybe more authentic city of Berlin.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Ive surfed a lot of couches in different countries and met a lot of very nice people Im partly still in contact with. The concept is just so great.
Seems like a lot of people left this site though

ah too much.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watching Iceland's height appear out of the dark in all its aggressive contours while the ferry was heading towards it.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach? Maybe amplifying a feeling for cities, buildings, urban development and architecture. Fundamentals of analog photography. I can introduce to the philosophy of Buddhism or teach a bit of Japanese Zen meditation practice.
Share? Music, books, experiences, stories, images, ideas
