About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Just keeping on, life is good!

ABOUT ME

I am an outgoing and very social person. I easily get very enthusiastic about things and hate that life is too short for making all of them my hobbies. I try though. Amongst the hobbies that I most successfully keep up are spending time and partying with my friends and family. I regularly forget and loose important things, so that could almost qualify as a hobby. I can relate to many different people, I like bad-ass punk rockers like I like nature-loving nerds.

PHILOSOPHY

Whatever it is that you love or hate, try to keep an open mind! Humour is understood in every country, don't try getting anywhere without it!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can offer you my couch, beers, talks and my deep and totally unbiased ;) knowledge about Hannover's night life.
I'd love to meet people who can not only host me but are willing to show me their town the way they see it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Not that much yet, but those wonderful encounters in Mexico already made it worthwhile.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I do tons of awsome things. I usually always need to do something. But genuinely doing nothing for an entire day recently felt like a real achievement.

I'd like to learn to play accordeon, you teach me that I'll teach you anything in return!
