CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Im an active guy allways open for new experiences. I like to find a mature but innovative/experimental way to life. I love the challenge of complex, selfmotivated projects and I love to work with professional people. I like to work hard and relax alone or chillout with friends. I love to travel around europe with my girlfriend Melisa. I can lay back with abstract arts, classic and jazz but also very filthy electronical music. And I love (buy or cook) good food!

PHILOSOPHY

I love my life and I work hard for making it better every day. I think its important to forward this feeling and my reachings to others. Seeing how much it makes an impact on people if you help them a little, its just lovely to do something little, something nice every day... and its easy too! I am in love with concepts like couchsurfing or carsharing and I am very convinced I will be working on a project with a similar spirit in my near future.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am providing my flat and knowledge of Berlin for all the people who are travelling to the capital of Germany. My flat-mates and friends help(ed) me to offer awesome experiences to people on CS. I am interested in meeting and helping new, interesting and reliable people. I feel very good and get very happy beeing a helpful part for this awesome community and its people in it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

First host:
On Sunday the 20. of april 2008 "Steven Lemoine" stayed at my place as the first couchsurfer I ever hosted. It was a really nice time with him and it helped to convince me that I wanna keep hosting people from CS.

First surf:
From the 26. of april 2008 till 03. of may I stayed at two CS places in Barcelona. Together with my girlfriend Melisa I wanna thank Daniel and Marco/Alex for this lovely introduction to the world of CS!

I also experienced one very unreliable couple of couchsurfers which is why I try to follow some basic rules to the process of living and traveling with each other through this platform. On the other hand I dont like to put up strict instructions or anything like this - I think alot of the behaviour that I expect comes naturally by people who are well educated and reflect about their actions.

Interests

Strategic marketing and communications, entrepreneurship, electronial music, drum & bass, some graphic design and fotography, modern abstract arts and furniture/architecture. Some sports like jogging, biking, swimming, some situps at home :) Travelling europe, organising reunions for the different institutions I am part of, speaking english as a second language, learning spanish and french. Lots of new things every day!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was a little child I got lost with my cousin. We were on "Mallorca" with our grandma and we couldn't find her anymore after we went away by bus all alone. The state police started looking for us and we went back to our hotel (somehow: swimming through rivers, climbing over walls, walking along roadways) and got "arrested" infront of the hotel entry. Our grandma was happy and we were completely amazed having done this trip :)

I recently played the main role in a movie done by the camera guy of "Slumdog Millionaire". Watch it here:
