ABOUT ME

I am a 24 years old german student. After a considerable odyssey with stays in Karlsruhe, Freiburg, Grenoble, San Diego and Seoul, I am planning to spent my last two years of study in the hopefully not too sleepy south german town Ulm.

I want to mention I DO read everyone's profile before sending a request. However, sometimes I don't know what to write or say so I won't sound corny. I hope my profile and references speak for themself.
Please note, if you do decline the couch request I would love to still meet you for coffee and drinks.:)

Places I have vistited until now:
visited 17 states (7.55%)Create your own visited map of The World or website vertaling duits?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I jumped from the "Admiralbrücke", after I had passed my graduation from Highscool. I recommand this to the many tourists in Kreuzberg. In the summer the channel is warm :)
