ABOUT ME

Hey there!
My name's Matthias! It is very likely that I'll move to Berlin this autumn because of my application to universities there.
I would describe myself as an open-minded character.
I really like cultures, languages and of course the different types of food :P
In my free-time I spend a lot of time with my friends. I am also active in politics and volunteering and I really like to chat with other people so I get to know their worldview :)

PHILOSOPHY

We should realise and make use of the possibilities we get by chance. Without doubt it is important to know who you are - nevertheless we shouldn't focus too much on what we could be but what we can do.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The Couchsurfing experiences I've made were 100% positive as you can see in the references below.
I am very happy that we've got the possibility to arrange us on Couchsurfing nowadays :)

Interessi

There are a few interests I'd like to list:
- CULTURE (including food, music, lifestyle, languages)
- POLITICS (I like to discuss about controversial issues)
- RELIGION (although I'm not that religious, I am quite
interested in that topic)

Relating to lifestyle I'd like to add that I'm quite interested in nutrition and sports. Anything else you can figure out when we're speaking to each other :)
