About Me

I traveled a lot as I did a gap year in 2015/16. I loved living the easy way of life Down Under, hiking from hut to hut in New Zeeland as well as learning about Chinese culture in Hong Kong.
But my life turned a little more boring as I started studying in Fall 2016 even though I think Aerospace Engineering is sick as fuck! But I still use my semester break and long weekend do explore either Dresden and Saxony or the rest of Europe. I never lost the mentality of trying out new things and facing strangers open-minded.
In addition to this, I would describe myself as a relaxed communicative person with a small tendency to extraordinary ideas.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One of the best part on traveling is, seeing a city through a local's eye. It brings you to places tourists never reach, whether you go roofing in Honk Kong or get a personal city night guide through Sydney ect., It also help you learn about the culture of the land/city ure traveling in. And those unforgettable experience are worth all the money I have, Although their are for free.
And of course it helps saving money I can spent on things like skydiving. ;-)

Interests

I love being in Nature whether hiking for several days or Sipping around with my Longboard, Ripsurf, or Freeline Skates.
Design and build a flying exoskeleton with attached hydraulic controlled birdlike wings and haptic feedback.

Sports in general but especially Trampoline, Surfing, Gym, Frisbee, skiing.
Good Food 😋 and cooking good food.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Roofing in Hong Kong. was pretty impressive. The feeling of Christmas when you open up a dumpster in Australia. Unfortunately, (actually fortunately) Supermarkets in Germany are not that wasteful.
Hiking the Tongariro Northern Circuit in New Zeeland was amazing.
And of course all the people you met in Hostels or via Couchsurfing!
