About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Make your life worth living it!

ABOUT ME

I am a calm and friendly person, I think I am not very complicated but still I know what I want. I like to discuss about topics which doesnt fit into the regular frame of smalltalk and I am interested in meeting all kind of people and cultures.
I like to see cities and countries through the eyes of a person whos living in this place, so I can go off the beaten track and discover the hidden beauty. Nevertheless I always want to see the main attractions, monument and touristic places to improve my cultural and historical knowledge.
I also like to take part of the nightlife, to feel the heartbeat of the city, the temperament of the people. And mainly I like to show all of that to you, if you are interested in visiting Germany :-)

PHILOSOPHY

I try to live every day of my life in a way, that I like to remember it. I am not a big fan of this "Live every day as if it would be your last!" because from time to time I like to spend my hours in bed reading a good book or just listening to my thoughts, boring but relaxing though. I want to leave some footsteps on this world but I am still figuring out which kind of footsteps, cause I really want them to be mine, not steps everybody could have done.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Some friends were telling me about CS and I loved this global idea. So I joined but until now I just hosted some people who were searching for a flat in my city. I am looking forward for more experiences!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Until now I was just sleeping at the house of friends who hosted also other people besides me. This days and nights were great and I am curious to get to know the rest of the world ;-)

Interests

I like all kind of sports, especially when I can connect it with seeing countryside I haven't seen before. I prefer riding my bike through the forest than to drive with the metro to the next shop. I am in love with languages and I try to learn as much as possible, even though I don't like to study them in school but to get taught by native speaker while drinking a cold beer. After my A-levels I did a paramedic training for two years so I am curious about first aid and medicine in general.

Since it is quiet hard to list things I am not interested in you should just ask, if you want to now more. Otherwise this space here would simply explode ...

Music, Movies, and Books

My Itunes playlist contents all kind of music which friends were recommending me. I am not that interested in bands but I love to sit on the balcony while listening to calm beats. So if you have any recommendations I would be pleased to hear them.

I am mainly reading german books, since I really like the german language and the way some authors use it. At the moment I adore Markus Werner but probably in two weeks this will change again. Generally I like to read Biographies, Historical Summaries and sometimes a soft novel!

The last movie I saw was "The cider house rules" and I am absolutely in love with this film/book!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spend an amazing time with people from all over the world in Portugal. Besides studying, I was traveling a lot and even when I am also looking forward to Germany, I know that I will miss this moving and intercultural life!

Teach, Learn, Share

Don't rely yourself on stereotype thinking, stay open and let the world suprise you!
