ABOUT ME

good guy, open minded, respectful, spontaneous, active, optimistic and interested

I like to listen to peoples stories and ideas and to share my opinions as well. Even if I totally disagree with your way of life, I will try to keep up a comfortable atmosphere. Meeting all kinds of diverse people via Couchsurfing is what makes this platform so unique and valuable.

I recently finished my studies in Hamburg and moved to Stuttgart to work as an project developer for innovative energy systems.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that every person has some valuable wisdom to share, I want to know what it is that you are carrying with you!

Interests

Iam a very interested character, always eager to extent my horizon.

Besides my joy for activities like sports, canoeing, beach volleyball, running, fitness
travelling, hiking, camping, nature...

I really enjoy having long, meaningful conversations. Spending six hours in bars or cafés talking about life, politics and society is no challenge for me. I like the honesty most people show after a few drinks, that magic moment when the veil of social norms drops.
But no worries, there is no obligation for exhausting talks, if the mood is not there I will just order another round of beer and we'll have an easy fun night out :)

Letting yourself go once in a while and not taking everything too serious is a way of appreciating life!

Whenever I am traveling, I try to find local food specialities (sure everyone does :) )

I am a passionate environmentalist not only due to my degree in environmental engineering, topics like pollution, global warming, renewable energies and the worlds obligation for economic growth will light a fire in my eyes. Only challenge me if you are ready for it ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

I've red at at least a few cultural valuable classic books and short stories, but to be honest, my favorite book so far is still "Hatchet" by Gary Paulsen. And I like science based novels like Frank Schätzings "the swarm".

Musikwise I am not limited to any genre, My favourite Bands are Radiohead and the Foo Fighters, I like Eric Clapton and Neil Young but adapted to the german electronic scene as well. (Like I had a choice :P ) But classic Hip-Hop is what really makes me happy even after more than ten years of excessive listening.
