About Me

Hey there,
I´m happy you made your way to my profil, that means at least you show a bit of intrest. Thank you for that :)
My actual name is Niklas Fiedler, i was born in the deep "Black Forest" in southern Germany, where I grew up with a younger brother and sister.
As a son of a travel agent I pretty early got to know different cultures and habits. My family is very important to me.
I can be my own best friend, but still I still give a lot about good community. Be it my girlfriend, other friends strangers, or animals. Good energy can be drawn from all of it
During the years I experienced a lot of shit and adventures and went through some crysis and many glory times.
People consider me as a nicely smiling guy with a dry and sometimes black sense of humor and a very goodwilling and empathetic heart.
I´m about to become a biology and geography teacher and just finished my studies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There are a couple reasons why I´m on couchsurfing:
Most importantly - -when I travel I don´t only wanna see the landscape and the touristic highlights, but - even more importantly - I wanna get to know the culture and the people as well. Because people are, what a country´s defined by in general. Couchsurfing is a very uncomplicated way to do so.
Of course another reason is the financial aspect. Sometimes if I come somewhere spontaneously a hostel would be way too expensive for me. So having a couch is a nice thing in that situation as well.
On the other hand I´l also willing to offer my own couch.

Interests

#
I´m very interested in Music (guitar, didge and piano), either making it or listen to it. Even better: Listen to it live! See "My Favorite Music"
Thereto connected is partying. Either Festivals, clubs, private, it doesn´t matter.
Dancing, cheerful people, having fun, that´s all that counts!
#
I love traveling!!! Which is probably the reason why you got in touch with me ;)
I´ve traveled to many countrys and saw many things. Strange things, beautiful things, horrible things, things that made me cry in a positive and negative way, things I fall in love with. And I wanna go on!
#
Sports! More and more I notice what an important role sports in general play in my life. I kind of start feeling depressed when I don´t move much and hang around in a room the entire day.
So I go running every other day, love hiking and camping, and love climbing.
Although climbing is hard on me at the time, because I dislocated my shoulder :(
Painful thing I can tell you!
#
Nature! It´s just awsome. I really care for it and so I´m trying to reduce my carbon footprint as much as possible and engage in some activism. It hurts to see how mankind is treating this world.

Music, Movies, and Books

-------- MUSIC -------------
I love listening to metal. Therefore my favourite subgernes right now are progressive and stoner metal.
When I´m in a calm mode I like to listen to Neofolk and slow minimal techno. Sometimes a little Reggae
For partying I love Psytrance in all its varietys.
--------- Movies--------------
Big variety of adventurous movies like Into the Wild or Lord of the Rings.
But I also like postapocalyptic and desaster movies.
-------- Books-----------
I love environmental thrillers like "Frank Schätzing´s" and historical novels.

Teach, Learn, Share

I wanna learn how things work. Either a mechanical-electrical thing, a language or a philosophy.
I can teach patience and beeing generous, can teach how to have more pleasure in your life, can tell stories and adventures and I can teach you german culture.
And I wanna share, that we are all one mankind and we shall support us where we can. We´re a self destructing species and we gotta hold on thogether and bring justice into this world, on a social and environmental way. If we don´t, our descendants will be in big trouble.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am very uncomplicated, young, physically and metally stabil. So If you´re just able to give me a spot on the floor where I can lay down with me sleeping bag, I´m fine with it. Seriously! :)
If you want, I can also do some housework: Cleaning up, cooking, washing... however, I´d like to exchange something for your accomodation.
And I´m very calm, so If you don´t want to talk a lot or something, that is also ok with me. On the other hand, I´ll be a good compagion for all kinds of activities.
You see, I´m a convenient guest ;) Please give me this chance!
