Hello there,

I am Max, a high school graduate of 2022. Currently I am exploring our world and making first hand experiences in our society and economy :)
I interned and assisted at various places, reaching from our a finance politician's office (Greens) in the state parliament, over state police, companies in our local automobile industry, as well as in senior residence and daycare for disabled. So you could say im young, im unqualified, but i have a lot to blabber about :p and I like blabbering. buut wittnesses and victims say, that I tend to- to a majoritie's detriment and a minoritiy's glee - start exchanging abstract thoughts about intricacies, correlations and problems of one's travels and one's life :p so we might find ourselves drifting off into abstract topics, pholosophical rabbit holes, reflections - as I did right now *darnit* again. back to it:

Up until recently I worked for the labour union "IG Metall" in Freudenstadt. On Oct 17th I started my trip to the US, not just to consume as a tourist, but mainly to do my part by volunteering in swing districts in the 2022 Midterm elections.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

1. Im a former student, now a world and society explorer, so I am not necessarily deep-pocketed. I wouldnt say Im poor, but I am.
2. might be unable to make ends need, while yearning to make friends and meet. I like to hear other people's stories, get inspired, share experiences and get to know other people's dreams as well as their problems.
3. The open-minded, spontaneous, unstilted, character of CS, all awhile still hinging on friendly exchange and consensus, is appealing to me.
4. I dont like being alone. But I like being reserved, quiet and mindful. All awhile it's undenieably nice to know that when travelling alone, that there are open-minded, helpful people around that you could talk to if needed.
5. If I happen to meet another of the many internationally interested individuals on CS and one engages in an English conversation, Im always thrilled :)
