About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finding a few couches in Lagos:P

ABOUT ME

I love to travel around the world simply because of the experience and the I could posible meet! I love to organize things. As you can see all trips around the world were organized by myself. I love to take the risk that somethings could go wrong and for that, to plan the in a way I can ovoid this risk! I have no problem with getting in contact with other people and to be honest I have met most of my closest friend in that way! :D From time to time, my friends would say that I am a bit of an egoistic person - but I a good way - I know what a want from live and I trying to give it back to my friends. If they need something I am trying my best to help them to reach their goals.

I spent my spare time mostly with friends, working in Hotels to earn money for my ideas and trips, I love reading books and I like all kinds of activities and dancing.

My friends would describe me as a very outgoing and friendly person who they can trust in every situation. I would describe myself as a person who is trying to find his way in live - My family is very impotent for me especially my dad who had shown me that you can reach almost everything in live as long as you believe in what you are doing. Maybe that is the reason why I am now a member of CS. I believe that this is a good thing and I think that every day you surf on another persons couch is the opportunity to do/see something great and wonderful and these experiences cant give you anything else and no one cant take them from you!

There are so many places I have to visit and I just started to travel around the world! NY, Miami, La, Russia, Spain, Portugal, Australia (Sidney!!)

My favorite passion is Photography! I like spending my time with my Camera.... but you can read the whole story about it in more details when you scroll down a bit! :D

PHILOSOPHY

"Live for the moment and enjoy it!"

"Trust your instinct more then your mind!"

There is a german quote I want to share with you:
"Regel sind nur wichtig, wenn sich das Herz nicht mehr sicher ist"
engl.: "Rules are just important, when the heart is insecure" - means that you can do everything you want as long as your heart can substitute your decisions.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am reading the daily newspaper, sometimse the part economy twice! :)Economy is after photographie the second greatest thing for me in my life. I love to read books about this topic and have a talk with my teachers about everyday occurrences.

When its about Music... ah thats a bit difficult - actually I really like almost everything.

A bit more specific:
Acording to my Ipod Playlist I am listining to:
Nelly
Cama
Colbie Cailait
Antony Hamilton
Kayne West
Linkin Park
Nickelback
Some Songs of the OST "Sweney Todd"
The Rolling Stones
Clasic Music like "Vivaldi" or "Mozart"
...
and so on...

But these Albums are just 7 or 8GB of all my 40GB Playlist so there is a lot of stuff I have to listen too :)

When it is about reading I have to be honest to mystelf, in general I dont like reading german books at all.
There are just two reason why I would read a german one. The first reason is because it may be a topic without any knowledge and thats clear - a german version is better by the first attempt.
Well and the second reason is obviously - I read it caus my teacher told me to.

In any other case I like to read a book in another language, simply because it is just a great change to improve my skill and learn new voc's.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was 16 years old when I decided to go Amsterdam for the holidays with a couple of friends. We were very lucky when we heard that we could stay in a flat of a friends near the first district of Amsterdam. For the following 6 days we had great weather, which is not usual in Amsterdam and a great time. We cooked, we did the loundry, we went to the supermarket and we saw every importent building of Amsterdam! ... when I was 16 :)
