Hi, my name is Leander and I'm from Germany. I currently live in the USA as an exchange student in a program funded and organized by the US Congress and the German Bundestag. This has been my dream for many years so I'm glad that I finally got to experience something so special!

I like to travel and explore new cities and national parks. While doing that, it's always nice to meet new people from all over the world.

I love to try new cuisines and riding my bike is part of my free time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because it's a unique and great way to meet new people while you travel!

Build bridges to connect the world.

Interests

As a person working in the tourism industry, I'm always interested in traveling as much as I can.

I like to ride my bike for longer trips and get a taste of the cuisine of the countries that I visit.

A comedy show is one of the best things for me to see when I visit a new city or country.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to a lot of (Alternative) Rock and EDM.

Some of my favorite shows are Black Mirror, Game of Thrones and Schitt's Creek.

My favorite book is a German book called "Ich bin dann mal weg", a travel diary by a comedian on his St. James pilgrimage.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived abroad for a year and felt that it helped me to be a more active person!

Teach, Learn, Share

If you want to learn some German words or sentences, I can definitely teach you some! I can also share some funny stories with you. :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm always open for a conversation and would enjoy to see and do new things. Let's go to a comedy show together to have a good laugh! :)

Living a life based on kindness.
