I made this video for you guys, please watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8pZvwJGNNI

I value rationality, purpose, empathy, personal development and honesty.

I'm passionate about solving problems, both people and computer related.

That's one reason why I created an online business to teach people German.
I love working on my business because eventually, I want to settle down and need the resources to start a family.
But for now, it allows me to freely travel the world. 😊

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love to travel, of course!
It allows me to visit new places, meet new people and new cultures. It's very inspiring.

I don't even have a flat of my own any more. I take care of people's houses while they are on vacation, stay at friend's places, stay at hostels, and of course stay at the places of the fine people I meet here.

I'd love to meet you! I'm happy to chat about philosophy, business and all kinds of other interesting topics.
I'd very grateful if you could let me sleep on your couch. Let me know what I can do for you in return.

兴趣

I absolutely love philosophy! I think there is a lot of value learning about and discussing rational perspectives that can be implemented in our own lives.

I founded an online business, so I'm always very curious about how to grow that and also help others grow or start their online business.

The business is about teaching German and also personal development, so I'm eager to learn and teach more.

音乐、电影和书籍

I love epic and emotional songs. Here's a small collection of mine on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEByPi2gBp1QYumH2AKpLHntF59kD9a9f

Overall, I LOVE time travel stories because they make me think and inspire me to live right the first time.

In addition, I really enjoyed:
Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality, The Perks of Being a Wall Flower, The Void Trilogy, and many others

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

“I have wrestled with an alligator,
I’ve done tussled with a whale.
I done handcuffed lightning,
throw thunder in jail.
That's bad.
Only last week, I murdered a rock,
injured a stone, hospitalized a brick.
I’m so mean, I make medicine sick.”

Okay, maybe I've not done things as amazing as the great Ali has done, but I visited the amazing Great Canyon, overcome my fears and worries and traveled around on my own for over two years, started an online business without ever having a real job. So yeah, a couple of things at least.

教，学，和分享

I teach German, online business, social media management,
share my passion about philosophy,
and love learning about all these things myself.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

My knowledge and expertise in the skills I have acquired in my life (see Teach, Learn, Share and interests).
I'd love to help you out with your social media, online business in general, your German practice and other things.

I love philosophy and personal development because it has changed my life profoundly for the better. I'd be happy to chat about those topics so that we both may gain more insights.
