CURRENT MISSION

Ahhh, big big challenge! Thesis- once again and surely the last one!

ABOUT ME

Well, what describes me the best is that I love to travel, it gives me life, energy and happiness (that sounds very cheesy).I'm open-minded and out-going and I need a bit of stress or much activity in my life otherwise I would feel bored. Which enroles in going to bed late and getting up early and I'll sleep when I'm old.
I love to learn, well I have to say that since I started a second subject: Medicine and will be studying at least 2 1/2 more years.
I like to be interactive with people especially my friends of course and since they are spread out in Germany, Europe and the world, I can be on the phone for hours and talk or hang out to them until one falls asleep, this is why I don't understand how people find time to watch TV...

PHILOSOPHY

Träume nicht dein Leben, lebe deinen Traum. Do not dream your life, live your dream. It's my mission since 1999. My friend wrote it down and framed it and gave it to me for Christmas 1999, since then it's sitting on my desk!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
