About Me

On my exploring year right now!

I just finished my A-Levels and want to discover the world now and want to learn about other cultures and, if possible, at least two or three new languages.
Trying to learn about life and myself in the upcoming year and hope to find new friends in Canada.

I'm open-minded and love it to talk and discuss :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I made the registration because a friend told me about couchsurfing when we talked about my upcoming W&T year and I was totally keen about the idea behind couchsurfing, to host and visit people without the idea of earning money, but with the aim to meet new people and learn about different cultures and to make it possible to travel inexpensive, so that we all can see more places and countries and learn more about us and the world.. I'm convinced that it is very important on the way to less wars and racism on our world, that we know and understand as much as possible of other cultures and countries. :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: some writings from Andreas Eschbach (f.e. One Trillion Dollar) , biographys (f.e. Sir Alex Ferguson, Nelson Mandela) , travel storys (f.e. without money around the world) and some books about politics and economy (f.e. the untited states of Europe)

Music: that's hard, because so various, the best music for me is older music and rap, so a mix of Frank Sinatra and Eminem would be godly, but german music like AMK is also very good, can't really decide what I like the most.. well the best artist is CR7Z without a doubt :D

Series: manily series like Breaking Bad, Prison Break or Alpha House, but also Scrubs or Two and a half men

Movies: -The Godfather -Forrest Gump -The Untouchables -2012 -Back to the future -Schindler's List -Gran Torino -Django Unchained -The Wolf of Wallstreet -The Big Short -Hangover
