Overview
About Me
I am an open-minded person who loves to travel and explore the world. I'm interested in getting to know new cultures, lifestyles and different opinions.
Currently I am studying medicine in Berlin, Germany.
After successfully finishing highschool I moved to Jerusalem, Israel, for a voluntary service with severely disabled persons for 15 months. This became a defining experience and I found my big passion in life - traveling - mainly on a low budget, cuz I think that is the most authentic experience you could make!
I love to do several different sports. For example: Krav maga (martial arts), swimming (I am a life guard too), diving, hiking, going to the gym. I also read books, especially about history and politics (I know, that sounds a bit nerdy haha).
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love to meet new people from different cultures and from all around the world. Furthermore I love to learn new lifestyles, insider facts and knowledge and how to become a more humble person.
Couchsurfing is the perfect opportunity to meet open minded people who share same interests and ideals. And, one of the most important things: locals know where to get the best food in town!

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: I really can not say, that I do not like any particular genre. If a song sounds nice to me, I like it. It does not matters if it is Hip Hop, Heavy metal or even Pop.
Movies: I am in love with Star Wars! <3 Furthermore I like the Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, Band of Brothers, The Pacific Breaking Bad, Shutter Island, Scream, Saw, American Pie, South Park, American dad, Drawn together and Family guy.
Books: Predominantly I do read non-fictional books about history, politics, medicine or economy. Sometimes I am switching for novels like from J.R.R. Tolkien or any Star Wars book.
