CURRENT MISSION

to learn a good job and enjoy my life

ABOUT ME

Well, I'm actually very shy (also called introverted ;)) but enjoy being together with others, but I need time where I can be on my own. Want to travel around when I'm older.
Nevertheless I'm open-minded and happy to get into contact with other people and other cultures -> you can learn so much of them
I'm also very curious and want to know how things works if they interest me

I live my life as I like it ... I like to be free
I mostly like wind and sunshine weather :)

PHILOSOPHY

Travelling around to get known to new things and experiences.

Take things as they come; you're mostly unable to change them, so you have to change

It's no use to cry over spilled milk.

Be happy; unhappyness and sadness only make you ill

laugh about things that disturb you

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

went to the Franconian CS meeting 2007
had a very nice CS trip to Ireland and Sweden in 2008 and was hosted by very friendly people there
hope I can have some hosting experiences when I will study next year
try to mention CS whenever I talk to people

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I visited the CS meeting in Nuremberg which was really great; also had a very nice host there;

Visited Ireland and Sweden in August/September 2008 where I was hosted by many very friendly people of CS. Only experienced positive things through CS and it helped me a lot regarding to strengthen my personality.

Interests

Hiking: as there are many mountains around me and also a big forest, I like hiking quite much; but mostly limited to day tours, only had a bigger tour in India once; and one in Sweden Sept 08 in Lappland: was a 4 day tour through a unique wilderness
Cycling: my favourite form of transport if it doesn't rain and you have to be fast; had made a 3 day trip to a region nearby with a friend which was great
Travelling: I like to be 'on the road'; want to go to many counries in the world and see many more fascinating things; I also like the 'travelling' as I like to go by train very much
Philosophy: I once read "Sofies world" of Jostein Gaarder and I was quite interested; also read Ken Wilber (if anybody knows him); when we had philosophy in school I was quite fond of Sartre, but I unfortunately haven't read a book of him yet
Trains: I somehow like them; not so much the technical details, but that it is possible to go by train almost everywhere

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

one year in Asia; was the best thing I've ever done
Friendship and fidelity; if you know you can rely on the other
Love: it's such a strong feeling

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn: Stepdance (but I think it's quite hard to learn); I'm also very interested in astronomy and food chemistry;
and of course in many interesting stories you've got to tell
I have experience with: computers (except hardware)
I can also teach you some German if you like to as it is my native language.
For now I don't know so much I can teach you as I'm still going to school ...
