Hi there,
I'm a senior International Studies and German student at the University of South Carolina.
I have a wry sense of humor loving all things comedic and satiric.
I have been described as "Awkwardly German for an American" by a friend from the Ruhrgebiet. I'm something of a contradiction, someone who is worldly and yet super Texan.

Also, I have a roaming gnome. His name is Heinrich Schultz and he usually travels with me.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love the idea of meeting locals and travelers alike and try, when possible, to have the most authentic experience possible in any given city and to broaden my horizons by making new friends and acquaintances from all over the world.

音乐、电影和书籍

Music is such an important aspect of my life. I'm a saxophonist, pianist and a bit of a composer. Classical and Jazz are by far my two favorite genres, though I like lots of other styles. Music is such a big part of my life I went to Brussels for the sole purpose of seeing the Sax200 Exhibit at the Musical Instrument Museum.

I also enjoy reading. Anything funny or satiric, though admittedly I read the newspaper more than anything else. My favorite book is probably the Hitchhikers' Guide to the Galaxy, but picking a single favorite book is nearly impossible

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I made a film for Campus MovieFest about a restaurant in Berlin in 1923.
Just in case you're curious:

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

A new outlook and perhaps a meal! My specialty is Shrimp Étouffée!
Of course I'm also more than happy to practice English or German with anyone I meet as well.
