About Me

So far I am a student and hopefully one day a teacher for german and spanish language. I travel a lot and like to meet foreign people, learn about their culture and their behaviour.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Keeping contact with people from all over the world opens your mind a lot.

Of course you can save money by Couchsurfing, but I would pay a hundreds of dollars more to get to know the city by its people. The value of getting to know the people behind each city values so much more than paying for an expencive hotel and being isolated after leaving the city. I would like to get to know your everyday life, your habits and thoughts about the world. Do we have any in common even though we don't speak the same language? Even though I am a foreign person does not mean that we have a different mind.

I like long talks without frequently checking the phone and forget about the time. I would like to make use of a bed in your house and give you everything back that I have with me.

Interests

I mostly spend my money on adventures, learning languages, seeing different people crwoded in one spot. I like the existing diversity and don't care if you are black white yellow religious gay straight tall small as long as you respect me and be friendly and kind.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like Rock. I have been to a Heavy Metal Festival. I swing to jazz, listen to folk and indie, I've seen Adele performing this year in Germany, I love the Red Hot Chili Peppers as well as dancing to Salsa and Bachata, german music can be fun, but also not. Music depends on the people you are enjoying it with, on your mood and your personal situation. I am really open-minded for any suggestions and be prepared for changing my mind by music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I stayed in the Galapaogos Islands where I have seen the most existing beauty.
I also walked on the Great Wall of China which made me breathless.
I walked through the Alps which means starting in Germany, passing Austria and ending up in Italy eating pasta. This was the hardest thing I have ever done..not including the pasta eating.
I made it to the (almost) top of a 5000m high ecuatorian volcano.

What I Can Share with Hosts

culture, language, food. Always typical german, but what exactly is being german? Everyone is different, I'd like to present my germaness to the world.
