About Me

ABOUT ME

studying psychology after I have noticed that it could be difficult to find a job with my philosophy degree. I liked it really much anyway but I think I prefer to work with people instead of sitting lonely in a room, thinking about stuff that no one really cares. I have worked as a poker dealer for a while and I liked this job but I really felt in love playing the game by myself. There are so many reasons why it is the best game in the world.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't take anything to serious, your life is to irrelevant. Everyone has the option to decide what is important and what is not. It's a kind of existentialism I guess, but I'm not sure.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Always a good opportunity to meet interesting people and to get out of my comfort zone.
I'm more an introvert guy and have to push my self sometimes to go out and try something new.
CS brings all these people to me and I like to help and to show them my favorite places.

Interests

I enjoy reading and to spend time with my close friends. Sport is a big part in my life as well.
Can't get enough talking about poker and from time to time I like to go out to explore the famous Berlin night life.
