"Guten Tag"

I am Hauke, 28 years old guy from Germany. I grew up with four siblings (3 brothers and one sister) next to the Baltic Sea cost in the very northern part of Germany, close to the border of Denmark. I finished high school in 2013, saved money and went to New Zealand for a typical work and travel adventure. In 2014 I moved to Hamburg to start my Business Psychology degree. At the end of 2015 I traveled Indonesia for 5 weeks and then moved to Christchurch, New Zealand for the second time to do a semester abroad. After New Zealand I went to Argentina for a internship in Rosario. I graduated as a M.Sc of Business Psychology and work as an Innovation Manager for an construction material retailer in Germany. During the last few years I traveled Nepal, Ukraine, Balkan Region, Iran, Mexico and some other places.

I maI am a super laid back and chilled guy. Getting to know people and making now friends is a pleasure for me. I easily get along with every kind of person regardless the social, cultural or whatever background. My interests are wide ranged e.g culture, history, politics sports like football or a good beer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am aware of Couchsurfing since a long time and I always wanted to do it and now finally I signed up. Since I really like to get into local people and culture wherever I am I think this is a powerful tool to get exactly that. And of course not only to get that, but also to share that. Yet, since I moved out my parents house and living in Hamburg, a city a lot of people visit, I probably get the chance to host and show some of you guys around.

Music, Movies, and Books

I can arrange myself with various styles of music.
Lord of the Rings, most Tarantino movies and The Shawshank Redemption are some sweet movies for me.
The Sopranos and of course Game of Thrones are pretty cool series.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking a volcano at night to see blue flames and lava.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a big fan of networking and staying in contact, so whenever people I met around the world came to Germany I liked to meet them again, or if not me, to get them into contact with friends so they have some local experiences.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Always some happiness.
