ABOUT ME

I'm Lukas, an open minded person from the North of Germany. Many people say folks from the north are a bit aloof but I think these guys are totally wrong :D If you start a friendship here it will likely turn into a real and proper friendship without dissimulation.

However! Probably I have two personalities. One of them is well organized, established and well-thought-out. The other one is the exact opposite! So form your opinion and decide which one carries more weight:

I love to sail jolly-boats, I like chocolate and cakes with a good cappuccino or a great tea, I go swimming in the Baltic Sea all year long, I prefer to be barefoot during summer, I like to meet new people during hitchhiking and couchsurfing, I would like to live in a Tiny House one day (and I dream about it will be located close to the sea or a lake), I support local gastronomy, I frequently help out on a sheep farm in Ireland, I studied something with digital media and tourism, I still like motorsports, I like road trips, I enjoy evenings in front of a campfire. Just meet me if you wanna know more about me :D
