ABOUT ME

Hey people of the world.
My name is Sven. After a year of work and travel in Australia, I used to live in Hamburg for five years. I studied and worked as a lightning designer. I like to bring people together and think, that we all have the choice in our life to create good moments. Not just for ourselves but for everyone.

I am discovering social entrepreneurship at the moment with my young start up in Vietnam and Germany. At the moment I am based in Saigon, Vietnam. Still I try to get out of the city as often as I can. I enjoy the intensity, diversity and culture here, but also feel the lack of nature and the calm it brings to my mind.

I like to discover my surroundings. And that's always easier with somebody interesting who knows his city/village/country.

Usually I'm getting along with most kind of people as I am quite versatile. I like many kinds of music, food, cultures and activities.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Life get easier if we share as much as possible. Food, stories and ourselves (don't get that wrong).

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm really into music. In that case, I'm really open minded and not limited to any genres. After all I'm not close to popular music. In the end I see music as an art, not as a product.

Movies
Tarantino, Rodriguez, Coen brothers, Xavier Dolan

Books
I enjoy Nietzsche, Marc-Uwe Kling. Tuesdays with Morrie is cheesy but very enjoyable.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think that I found out, that everybody's motivation for their actions is the same. All of us are trying to find their luck.
The ways are extremely different, but this thought really helps me not being judgmental.

Well, maybe I misunderstood this caption. Probably I was supposed to write something like being on the top of a mountain or something.
Well. I did some great things though. But I'll tell you that in person.
