CURRENT MISSION

Founding a trading company for organic food

PHILOSOPHY

Well, I would prefer to speak about this while we are drinking a coffe or a beer. But here is a short summary of my thoughts:

I see myself as a european, not as a german. I am really sick of stereotypes, because I realized, that young people all over the world, from australia, over Asia to Europe are looking for the same thing. And this is peace and fun.
I really didn't meet anyone from a country outside of germany that fitted into the stereotype that people have about the country. Not on a big level (asianas are not "the asians") and not on a small level (young people from poland, germany and france have much more similar behaviours than most of the small-minded people think).

I don't beleive in any god. But I think that "christian values" (that generally are also muslimic, jewish, buddhistic etc. values btw.) make a lot of sense. So be peaceful, fair, honest, share with the people who need something. That are the main rules I try to follow.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I will offer you my couch whenever I can, just write me a message or give me a call. If you are froma foreign county, it is even better. I speak english and portuguese, some french and a few words of some other languages. So write me a message or give me a call, if you come to Nauen! I will offer you my couches and show you around as much as I can!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well I have slept on several couches, but mainly of people that I know already for a while. So my couch-surfing experience in terms of this community is fairly small. But I am sure, that this will change very soon.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't watch much TV and have to admit that I have a big leque of films, so you won't have fun in speaking about actors or the latest films with me. ;-)

I like a wide range of music. That always depends on my mood, of course. It goes from calm ballades (Katie Melua, Katherine Jenkins etc.) over Jazz to classic-Rock and Blues but also includes Pop and hip-hop. What I don't like is music without a message. So Techno is not my style. But as long as someone has to say something and the music is played by real musicians, I will listen to it at the right time.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn more about other cultures and languages. My contribute in this will be, that I can tell you something about germany and also about Portugal (although I am not a native portuguese. So my point of view on Portugal is also not the "original one").

I once read, that everybody influneces everyone that he met in his life, even when these people didn't meet for more than one minute. So we will learn from each other in every case. This is just a consequence of being a couch-surfer
