CURRENT MISSION

Learning French. Coaching people and teaching social skills to young ppl over the internet (sounds contradictory, doesn't it? :D). Having fun all the way. :)

ABOUT ME

Since October 09 I've been living in Vienna, the town that I'd instantly fallen in love with when I'd visited it at the age of 16.
And, what can I say, I really love it!

PHILOSOPHY

Understanding is not agreeing. Try to understand as much as possible - there's no risk except having to update your perspectives.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Very good so far. Made lots of very nice connections - CS is really a space to connect as humans.

A story:
Running into my host family in a pub in the middle of the night and of nowhere, where I wanted to ask the locals where the house of this family was. Luckily I hadn't found the house, because none of them was at home at that time.
Coming unprepared comes in handy at times :D

Interests

Connecting on the heart level.

Laughing a lot (even if unnecessary).

Learning about what drives people, how people work and how they can make the changes they yearn for.

How to change the world for the better with the biggest leverage possible. I'm one of those social entrepreneurship guys.

Making music and listening to it.

And the greatest sport in the World: "Jugger"! :D
Come on, ask me about it ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being at the Oracle of Delphi in Greece was great. It's so much more intense when you're not busy taking pics all the time.
