CURRENT MISSION

Studying in Switzerland but looking forward to my 4 month internship in Madrid starting this December. C u there!

ABOUT ME

After living in Germany for the past 19 years of my life i am more than glad to have taken my first independent steps after graduating from school this year.

Trying to stay productive over the past months i have already spent two months teaching english in spanish summercamps (during the soccer world cup more like a suicide mission if you ask me) and then further pursued this profession in Sao Paulo whilst studying portuguese. I am currently back in Berlin but will be leaving it for an indefinite time on June 7th to work in a hostel in Lisbon.

So much to what I do, now to who I am.

Well, i generally see myself as a quite adventurous, energetic guy, who inherited discipline and organization from his swiss father, and a kind of whackyness from his american mother. The couchsurfing concept really appeals to me, especially now, since im learning that life is constantly about reinventing yourself, and meeting new people helps you in that process. I think its a pitty i did not know about it earlier as well, since i would have loved to show people around Berlin (a truly amazing city), starting in april i will luckily get the chance to make up for tht :D

PHILOSOPHY

"If life gives you lemons....fuck the lemons and bail"

"A realidade sempre é mais ou menos,do que nos queremos"

"Renne nach dem Glück, aber renne nicht zu sehr, denn alle rennen nach dem Glück, das Glück rennt hinterher"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far, the only way i can participate in the CS-experience is with my stunning personality :D

..no, just kidding, i have a couch (and actually, a bed too, i prefer sleeping on the couch)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A few, i like sleeping on couches

Interests

I am very interested in sport like activites, so if you enjoy swimming, hiking, jogging you will find a partner in me.

Im also a passionate student and teacher, and am more than glad to help out with something if i can.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am not all too much into movies, and have to admit that it has been too long since last i read a good book.

Music: I played a lot of Jazz and Funk on Sax before leaving it in berlin (tragedy!) and other than that like listening to those styles of music too (Jamiroquai is a must!)

Im into electro too, dj-sets (justice, Calvin Harris, Birdy nam nam, daft punk etc) and have even started mixing a little myself lately (not really worth mentioning) im creative, i like doing stuff with music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Maybe not amazing in other peoples eyes, but for me it was a production of "Shakespeare abridged" that i singlehandedly financed, rehearsed and produced with three other friends, we were very proud of our achievement.

and probably go to Brazil on my own with 18.

Teach, Learn, Share

cooking. My jobs in two 5 star hotels have taught me the one or other thing and living alone with your father in a household teaches you basic-survival stuff as well :D

Im open for anything, as long as its not harmful.
