Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Doing Interrail travel for 5-weeks after that I need to find out what to do with my studies
ABOUT ME
I am a 25-year old student from Berlin. Besides studing Business communication managment I am a Dj for Tropical Bass, Soca & Dancehall music who promotes two regular partys in Berlin. Moreover I am interested in all kinds of visual arts & graphic design and try to improve my skills in this field. Same applys for photography. I like playin Beachvolleyball and skateboarding (eventhough I am still trying to learn a proper kickflip :D). On the professional side I am working (currently not very often unfortunately as university and all those kind of Dj/Promoter business hussling takes too much time) in an environmental office on a website summarizing all environemtal events in Berlin.
I love to travel eventhough my travel experience are restricted to some inner-european travels and one bigger journey to Canada, one to Ghana and one to my roots in Vietnam when I was 9-years old.
PHILOSOPHY
Enjoy your life and share good moments with people. Have a passion for something in your life which you are strive for. Be positive to other people. Do as much unconventional stuff as possible, travel, act out of the laws only stay true to yourself.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I just started using Couchsurfing but its already great.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Well, as I said I just discoverd Couchsurfing due to recommendation of friends. My first experiences as a guest was excellent so far. I met so many different people during my first Couchsurf with a bunch of intersting storys from Hitch-Hiking for a month to working in Africa. Definitly a positive part of this journey and a must in every following travel as you get to know people on a more personal level.

Music, Movies, and Books
I am not really into movies, at least I hardly can remember the titles and actors and stuff. Musically I started listening to Dancehall Reggae and HipHop when I was a teenager. Nowadays I still keep the passion for carribean and african music eventhough my musical horizon is wider than back in the days. Currently I also like a lot of Future Garage and Deep UK Sounds, Soca from Trinidad, some of the good new school rap stuff (Evidence, Mac Miller etc) as well as artists like Santigold, MIA, Katy B and many more.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
In the beginning of this year I went to Ghana and gave lectures about environmental issues. This was one of the most formative experiences I have ever made. Beside getting to know a wonderful country with great people and an interesting culture I was also able to see a lot of wild animals including a family of Mona monkeys living in a monkey sanctuary near the Sunyani region (if u ever travel Ghana u need to visit this place).
Teach, Learn, Share
I have basic knowledge in music (production and stuff) and advanced knowledge in DJing I am always love to talk about. Also I can teach some Photoshop basics (in the same field I always love to learn more about design issues).
