Overview
About Me
How’s it goin’ horse? I'm travelling Ireland for a few weeks in August and I'm looking to meet some nice people along the way.
At the moment I'm a student of English, Politics and Education in Kiel, Germany and I'm working as a teacher on the side. I love all kinds of sports. Just got into Kitesurfing and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (which is a deadly mix whenever I'm attacked on the water). I'm also into boxing and a bit of yoga.
I love music. Sometimes I fiddle around on a few instruments myself, when I'm not busy putting sharks into headlocks.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Meeting new people with different views and philosophies towards life is easily the most enriching part about travelling. Getting to know locals is still the best way to get to know a place and maybe even make some new friends in the process.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I once covered my parents' entire living room carpet with lotion when I was two years old.
Teach, Learn, Share
I love learning the big and the small things of life. I get pretty excited about puns. I'm pretty sure you can learn something from anybody.
As far as particular skills go:
I've been playing guitar for about 8 years now, can show you the basics of Didgeridoo or maybe a few metal growls?
I'm always eager to learn new instruments. I really want to try out the trumpet and violine!
