CURRENT MISSION

To become happy in Germany

ABOUT ME

I love to travel to nearly every place in the world. Most important for me is to see how people are living in the country and to understand their culture and get in touch with people living in the country.
Since February I'm out of work and since April I left my country to travel through Latinamerica. First stop Costa Rica to learn Spanish.
I love to go out with friends or those who want to become one, see different views on a place and I love to talk about almost everything. ;)
For more details we have to meet...

Me encanta a viajar a casi todos los lugares del mundo. Lo mas importante para mi es ver como la gente vive en el país y para comprender su cultura y ponerse en contacto con las personas que viven en el país.
Desde febrero estoy sin trabajo y desde el principio de abril dejé mi país para viajar en Latinoamerica. Primera parada Costa Rica para aprender español.
Me encanta salir con mis amigos o los que quieren serlo, ver diferentes opiniones en un lugar y me encanta hablar sobre todas las cosas. ;)
Para obtener mas detalles, tenemos que encontrarnos...

PHILOSOPHY

I haven't been everywhere, but it's on my list. :)
No he estado en todas partes del mundo, pero está en mi lista :)

"Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans."
"La vida es lo que te pasa mientras estás ocupado haciendo otros planes."

Give children roots and wings
Dé raizes y alas a niños

The world is a book and those who don't travel see only one page.
El mundo es un libro y aquellos que no viajan sólo ven una página.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far I've surfed during my vacation and hosted in the time in between, but since April I'm not able to host anymore, but I'm going to meet a lot of different people in Latinamerica, while travelling within the next year.
I've prepared meetings in my hometown and reached every newbie in Bonn a hand, so if you are one of them, don't hesitate to send your questions to me, even though I'm not in Bonn anymore I'm still able to answer questions about it.
Besides that I've joined the PR & Media Team of CouchSurfing to support the community in answering questions of journalists.

Hasta ahora he "surfed" durante mis vacaciones y "hosted" mientras, pero desde abril no puedo hospedar, pero voy a conocer a mucha gente diferente en Latinoamerica, mientras viajaba en este año.
He preparado las reuniones en mi ciudad y doy a todos los novatos en Bonn una mano, así que si eres uno de ellos, no dude en enviar sus preguntas a mi, aunque yo no estoy en Bonn siempre puedo para responder preguntas sobre esta.
Además de eso he unido a la equipo de prensa de CouchSurfing para ayudar la comunidad en respuesta a las preguntas de los periodistas.

Interests

At first, I'm nearly interested in everything! It always depends on how people are trying to tell me about it.
Main interests at the moment are travelling and getting to know places and people better, finding new friends in every place.
My hobbies are procycling, running (halfmarathon, baby! ;)), computers and meeting friends.

Casi todo tipo de música está bien conmigo, sólo para la música popular alemana o HipHop tengo que tomar unas cervezas antes de ... ;)

Books... I was used to read many books, but since I'm working I have less time for it. The last were Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and Lord of the Rings. At the moment I'm reading 5 people you meet in Heaven, a book the niece in my host family in Costa Rica recommended.
Libros ... Yo estaba acostumbrado a leer muchos libros, pero desde que estaba trabajando tengo menos tiempo para eso. Los últimos fueron Harry Potter y las Reliquias de la Muerte y Lord of the Rings.
