CURRENT MISSION

Planning a wonderful trip to Roma, Cinque Terre, Pisa, Volterra, Perugia e Urbino :)

ABOUT ME

I live in Kiel in an apartment with three awesome roommates. One guy and two girls. One of my roomies is a carpenter, I study English and Italian in order to become a teacher, the others study medicine and social work. We love having a great time with our friends or new people. I love foreign languages and cultures and therefore I want to meet a whole bunch of new interesting people through CS!
We love to cook together!

PHILOSOPHY

Never let your life be ruled by prejudices. Actually consider that a person is an individual human being, not just a clone of a certain group of foreign people or a foreign country. You might actually have a lot in common with a person of a completely different background.

Interests

Well... I am interested in languages. That's why I study English and Italian. I also love meeting other cultures and seeing different places. I also spend a lot of time reading and some day I want to have a whole room only for my books. I am really interested in social life, relationships and daily life.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really enjoy reading good books. My all-time favorites are Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell, Paolo Coehlo and Jane Austen. Recently I read "The hundread-year old who climbed out of the window and disappeared" and loved it. But I also really liked " The kite runner", "A Thousand Splendid Suns", "City of Thieves" and many others. I actually don't listen to music. I love dancing in clubs, but when I am at home, I prefer reading a book or talking to friends without music. That sounds really strange to most people, but I kind of enjoy silence sometimes. It disturbs me and I forget what I was thinking about ;) I only listen to music with other people around. But if I have to, I do like The Kooks, Birdy, Feist, The Wombats, Kimbra, Maroon 5, Jack Johnson, Adele, Paolo Nutini, Pohlmann and Tomte.

Movies: Jeux d'enfants, Le nom de gens, La grande bellezza, The Royal Tennenbaums, Cloud Atlas

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I find it reaaaallly amazing experiencing human beings and animals to grow up. It is just so fascinating how they develop and change :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Well... I can teach you languages :)
If you visit me and I have time, I can show you my city and the people living here. I can show you the habits and daily life of students in my hometown.

That's also what I would like to learn from other people. How they spend their days, listen to their opinion about different topics...
