CURRENT MISSION

I want to get to know other people from foreign countries. I don't want all those other countries I'm interested in being "foreign" anymore! Plus, I would SO much love to improve my japanese and English skills! :-)

ABOUT ME

Hey there and thanks for visiting my profile. :-)
My name is Maximilian Hausmann, but everyone calls me Max. :-)
Currently, I am 27 years old and I live in Ludwigshafen am Rhein/Mundenheim.

I have three brothers and three sisters and I would consider myself a people-person. :-)
I'm always in a good mood and as long as the sun is shining and/or I can listen or dance to my favorite music, everything is alright. :-)
I have an apprenticeship on the Technical University in Darmstadt to become an IT specialist for system integrations.

When it comed down to my hobbies, I have many. :-)
Anything that has to do with music is what I like. Whether it's dancing, singing karaoke or just enjoy a good gig, music is important to me.
I love to dance (for real) and I also perform Machine Dancing aka Dance Dance Revolution for more than seven years now. :-)

Also, I like to be outside when the weather is fine and watch a movie or two if it's the opposite chase. ;-)
I sort of have a love for dramatic stuff and movies, like the grave of the butterfly. But don't ger me wrong, I'm a pretty happy guy. :-)

I'm always there for my friends and people around me. Some people say I might be "too good" and sometimes, I really forget myself in the middle of helping others out. :D

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm always out for some new dimensions of fun.
And during this summer, I found something incredible new - at least to me it's new.
I'm talking about bungee jumping from 90 meters above.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach how to do ballroom dancing like Slow Waltz, Wienna Waltz, Jive, Salsa and many more. :-)
I really enjoy it.

I would really like to improve my japanese skills.
I'm only at the beginner level when it comes down to conversation and reading, but I think I understand pretty much when listening to it. :-)

In general, I love to meet new people and learn about the individual culture.
