I was born in Germany and study abroad at the University of Illinois currently. I've been staying for 2 semesters and this is my last one. I play music, like to travel, do sports and get to know new people and cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's one thing to visit a city and do sightseeing. It's another thing to get to know locals and experience a whole different vibe of the location. This is the reason why I'd like to use Couchsurfing while traveling.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach some German sayings and I always like to share and enlarge my knowledge in couple dancing. I can also show you how to make sushi yourself.
I am usually interested in mostly everything. If you're a scout or a philosophy student or whatever..., I am sure there is always something interesting I am willing to/can learn from you.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you'd like to get to know some German food/beverage, I can get some German beer in the next liquor store or get the groceries for a breakfast. I can share some typical sweets from my home country if I carry some with me.
Besides this, I am ready to cook or do something else to show the host my gratitude. Thanks in advance for hosting me! :)
