Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

If I am back home I love to offer my couch to anyone. If I am not in Switzerland I can always offer my parents place to stay at.
I made that deal with them because I felt bad, that I only take because I was about to travel for a year.
They always like to meet new people (they speak, German, French, English, Arabic) and are quiet generous hosts.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far none, I always had friends that I new to stay with or I was a little late with sending a couch request.

Interests

I like any kind of sports. My absolute favorite is Beach Volleyball (I play Volleyball for almost 15 years now). I also do a lot of running and hiking, I like camping and any kind of extreme sports/activities.

Music, Movies, and Books

I looooove movies, I have about 200-300 DVDs at home.
My favorites are: Lord of the Rings, Stardust, Avengers ...
I like to read fiction books like Hunger Games, Harry Potter and those, I was big into Karl May when I was younger.
I listen to all kind of music, lately more Pop and Rock but I also love "Two steps from Hell" which make amazing epic music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On top of a mountain in the Adirondack State Park. The scenery of pure nature as far as I could see was very impressive.
A had a similar feeling when I was on a volcano in New Zealand, but that was years ago.
I worked at a summer camp in the years 2008, '09 and '12 and we have the camp Olympics and this year we won. The finish is always the fire building and I tutored our fire builders and they just rocked. 400 campers were cheering at the fireplace for 15 minutes and when our team had the first fire ... the cheering was so incredibly loud.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can juggle, breath fire, play any kind of sport, walk on my hands, know dozens of riddles and card tricks, I'm sorry I mean card MAGIC of course.
