I consider myself to be a pretty straightforward dude, which might go along with a tendency to ocasionally surprise people a bit ;). It's not always a consciouss decision, but generally I'm pretty open with what's running through my mind, may it be compliments, ideas, interests, sometimes sadness or annoyance. This character-trait has helped me to have genuine conversations fairly quickly when meeting new people. I think its just wonderful to skip smalltalk when running into somebody the first time, and just talking about something you or the other person is really concerned about at that moment. Yep, I think that might help you to imagine who I am ;).
In the hobby department I enjoy making stuff (like woodcrafting, sewing, photoshop, creating overly complicated excel sheets) and have dived more and more into the electronic music scene in Greifswald. With my collective I organise colorful outdoor-raves, preferably at daytime with lots of melodic music. You just gotta appreciate tha festival-culture of Meck-Pomm ;). Oh, and I loooooooove hitchhiking when I'm travelling without time-limit. It's such a wonderful way of having random encounters you wouldn't usually have in all day life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Staying with locals is always a more distinguished experience of a place than sticking to the touristic spots or attempting to explore it completely on your own (you gotta be lucky, but of course its possible). For this reason, CS is an amazing platform!

Sidenote: I personally prefer well written requests, which show me that you have read my profile. I understand when people do copy and pasting, but I like it when people are choosing the people they write a request to. Sending me a non-personalized request will most likely get you declined. I would be happy to hear something about you: Something you consider important, a fear you have, a great encounter, the most unlikely story that has ever happened to you or what you last ate for dinner and how you liked it. Just make sure to mention, that you are telling me, whatever you are telling me, because you have read this section of my request.

Music, Movies, and Books

Thats hard to cover. Lets talk about it! But I am gonna say that I love Quentin Tarantino movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hitchhiked over 10.000KM, quite a lot wonderful experiences came from that ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can't really pinpoint what I want to learn or what I can share. Let's see what comes up when we spend time!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a very flexible person. I like spending time in large groups, small groups, only with one other person and also alone. So if you are a rather busy person, I will explore everything by myself, if you like to spend time with me, thats even more great. I think I'm quite optimistic when it comes to any kind of activity, when I'm travelling. I have almost always fun.
