About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I wanna discover the world and the cultures. So I have started to explore Europe at first

ABOUT ME

Hello, I'm Guido, 22 years old and I'm studying a mixture between surveying and business economis in Oldenburg.
Oldenburg is the only city in Germany with this course of studies.
Oldenburg is ok but I don't love it. It is a little small and boring for someone who lived and worked in a city like Cologne for all his life. So I go back to my parents in Cologne as much as it is possible, that means every few weekends and during vacations, for sure.

Before I started the studying in Setember2011 I worked in Cologne as a surfeying technical.

PHILOSOPHY

So make the best of this test,
and don't ask why.
It's not a question,
but a lesson learned in time.

It's something unpredictable
but in the end is right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

(Green Day- Good Riddance)

Enjoy your life. Make the best of it. Don`t waste your time useless. Be nice and respectful for everybody.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I haven't use it before but I want to start right now! With surfing but also with hosting people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I don`t have any experiences with CS yet but I hope I`ll make any in the near future.

Interests

I have many different hobbies.
I do many sports, exspecially Judo(for nearly16years).
I`m interested in football and I went to nearly every home game of my local club, the 1.FC Köln, with friends before I moved to Oldenburg.After the game we made some party in Cologne(or not when the FC loses to high)
I`m very interested in traveling in other countries. Normally I sleep in hostels but recently I have hear about CS, so why not? I like it to talk with people from different countries in the hostel and backpackertourists.They have the best tips for Sightseeing(cause they aren`t real mainstream tourists) and it`s interesting to learn something about the different cultures.

Till i moved into my flat hwere I live now, I lived for a time in a student dormitory with many other students and students from foreigns countries who stayed in Oldenburg for there abroad year. It was amasing to talk and life with them.

Since I`m 18 years old I have travelled a few times with low coast airlines and only with backpacker for a few days. Sometimes with my sister, sometimes with friends and a few times alone.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music. Exspecially concerts and big festivals like Rock am Ring. I have been to about 60 concerts yet.
Most of them were Alternative/Indie/Punkrock.

But I also like to go to disco and hearing electronical or hear some German music.

I love to read books, exspecially thrillers and fantasy. My favourite series is The Dark Tower, written by Steven King and I love travel-literature.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In July 2010 I travelled with Interrail and only a backpacker through Norway for nearly3weeks. I slept in hostels or in the night train because I spent a lot of time in trains, cause I travelld from Stockholm to the north cape and then to the southern regions in Norway.
It was so exciting, it was unbelieveable!

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Monaco, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Tunisia, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In
