Hej everyone!
I'm German 23 y.o. dude, have been living in the U.S. (Washington State) as an exchange student for one year in 2010 - 2011 and in Spain (Valencia) as an AuPair in Summer 2015.
Since 2014 I am studying in Leeuwarden (Netherlands), International Business Management.
I hate being alone and have been a very interactive and open-minded person ever since. Due to my experiences in America, Spain and due to my friends in the Netherlands from around the world, such as Oman, Honduras, El Salvador, Vietnam etc my cultural background as expanded immensely.

At the moment I am living at a so-called "Hestia Student Lounge" (check it on facebook). A student house for everyone from my university, open every day for every one - for events, studying, chilling, gaming, partying, whatever:). And I enjoy every second of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My dream is it to have friends in every country of this world. That way, whenever I travel I can hit someone up. Wouldn't that be awesome?
On one hand, the first hand experience of getting to know the country and culture by a local is of essential knowledge to me. On the other hand every friend can visit wherever I might be. That way, a constant excitement is add to your life.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I like every kind of music basically, except hardstyle - well, I got used to it in the Netherlands. Preferable, hiphop, pop, chill music or live or even acapella music.
Movies: Every kind of movies. Batman is the best. Into the wild is deep. Not watching much movies tho. Never any series.
Books: Last book I read was about the life of Barack Obama. Do not like fantasy books much.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Never watched Titanic, yet. Will save it for my Honeymoon.

I am pretty proud of myself to have been walking the Camino de Santiago from Lugo to Santiago (120km) in 6 days, with four AuPair kids (8,9,12,14y).

Not amazing, but tough: I was working in Volkswagens factory in Wolfsburg more than 4 months in total now to finance my studies. Not a job for everyone - let put it this way.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love every kind of sports. Love to do it, watch it, talk about it. Soccer is life, though. Next to that, I am a skiing instructor, can also snowboard and love volleyball and table tennis.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer to teach English and German and admire people who speak Spanish. I want to learn so bad! But have very basic knowledge yet.

Going to study in Madrid from September on.
