About Me

50% German 50% Vietnamese. At this point in my life I live and study in Chengdu, China as an exchange student. I have been here since summer 2017 and I will stay for at least a year.

Before I came to China I was a student at the University of Hamburg studying "Economy and Culture of China" in the 4th Semester. This study program I will continue as soon as I return from China.

My first major travel experience I had between summer 2013 and spring 2015 when I was living, working and travelling in the USA and Canada.
Experiencing and dealing with new cultures and meeting so many special people got me going through an intense personal development which ended up becoming the most awesome experience I have ever had in my life until then.

After leaving North America I lived in Denmark for a few months before I went back to Germany to start studying.

And now, as said earlier, I am in China enjoying life, trying to combine a carrier with travelling the world whenever time allows.

I am always up for a good conversation, always curious to meet interesting people that have a story to share and might be interested in mine!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is based on one of the best, smartest and most simple ideas in the world... Connecting people by sharing places, experiences and stories.

I had my first couchsurfing experiences as a surfer travelling through the US. I always had a great time no matter what place we crashed into and I guess you can have a good time couchsurfing in almost any place as long as you appreciate anything you get.

PS: Almost all of my personal references are actually references by hosts. This is because we used my girlfriends CS profile while travelling through the US. Here is her CS profile: https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/linalund

Interests

Next to traveling...

MAKING MUSIC!
I've been making music since I was 12 years old starting off with guitar followed buy piano and drums. I played in several bands and focused 100% on music for a long time. Through travelling and studying it became kinda hard though to keep up with that so unfortunately right now I barely get the time to play

FITNESS!
A strong body, a clear and healthy mind and a good conscious about my body is a big goal in my life.
Working out and doing my body something good with the right nutrition fulfills me very much.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most amazing but also most freakiest things I have done:

spending some crazy days in Vegas with my girlfriend, running into some kinda sugar daddy who would pay for literally everything without us asking for anything but in the end it turns out that he offically doesnt even exist by his given name

but no harm was done to us...
