Hey there :)
I'm Steffen from Germany and I just graduated as a music therapist in Heidelberg.
I love meeting people, making new friends and learning to see the world we live in from a different point of view.
I'm open to all people and what matters to them. No matter if we talk about the wheather, the existence of divine beings or telling some happenings from our lives - count me in!
I love music, listening to music, writing music, share music... but I also love silence.
I like cooking, reading, watching movies and shows (from blockbuster to Indie to Kdrama to Kurosawa and back - really a lot hehe). I play the piano, a bit of guitar, I like walks, making a bit of sports now and then (preferably with another person) and I just enjoy to be with friends and have a drink or else together!
I’m also a big nature lover. When I’m in nature, everything is in its right place. I can become peaceful when I’m in nature.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Show me the world in a way that I haven't known it yet!
I'm very uncomplicated and open-minded. You can talk with me about literally anything!

I'd like to know about Korean daily life and learn the Korean language properly.
I would be super happy if you take me to authentic Korean restaurants or show me some secret spots anywhere in the country!
Also I'm very interested in learning how to prepare traditional Korean dishes.

I can’t wait to get back to my home and be a CS host by myself! I experienced so much kindness here and met so many cool people that became friends, so I want to give back what I can! And after all, giving makes me even more happy than taking!

Music, Movies, and Books

I guess I’m a bit of a movie nerd, here are some of my favorites:
Swiss Army Man, Cloud Atlas, Call Me By Your Name, Ran, The Lord of the Rings…

I like to read but I don’t find much time these days. My favorite author is Stefan Zweig.

I used to listen to a lot of movie scores, but that got less in the last few months and now I just listen to a lot of Indie, Alternative, Ambience and sometimes a bit of classical music.

btw check out my Spotify:

I'm releasing music from time to time. You should also find me on other music platforms like Apple Music or iTunes etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw a comet falling in the night sky, I thought it was hitting earth... I literally thought that I was going to die in that moment... turns out, I didn't.

Teach, Learn, Share

한국어로 많이 대화하고 싶어요!
I want to speak as much Korean as possible!

I also would be happy to teach you some German or English, and to share some of my cooking skills.

I can show you how to juggle with four balls or teach you a simple song on the piano in one evening :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good talk about whatever you're in the mood for, I feel comfortable with everything. Also I'd be happy if you'd share an evening with me in a bar or another place with me in your city 👌
