Hi there :-)

Call me Eike, I'm 20 years old, studying International Relations in the beautiful city of Erfurt in central-eastern Germany.

When I was an exchange student in Arizona in 11th grade, my wish developed to see as much of this world possible as long as I am young :-)

In short: ♥languages, ♥traveling, ♥food, ♥music, ♥sport, ♥discussions/politics

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I love camping and staying in youth hostels, too, but staying with someone via Couchsurfing in their home is very special and amazing to get to know new, interesting people who can teach you about the places first hand.

Places I want to travel to in my life once: Latin America + Carribean, some Pacific Islands, southern Africa, Antarctica

But with regard to the next few years, I really wanna see a lot of Germany and Europe.

I can't host anyone right now because my shared apartment doesn't even have a couch, nor does it offer enough space for someone to sleep on the floor. I'll move into a bigger apartment with some friends soon and then we'll host :-)

Intereses

TRAVELING
new places, being out in nature, having fun with new people, hanging at a beach, canoeing, surfing, biking! Intercultural Exchange

Sports: soccer, ping pong, hockey, volleyball, yoga, anything

Music: I sang in a boys' choir for 10 years and play the piano a little, would love to learn trumpet and accordion. Plus I love musicals!! :D

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I really wanna learn some DANCING (especially latin American, but also modern and hip-hop, I can already do some ballroom dancing)
LANGUAGES! (I'm fluent in English and German and got some skills in Low German (Plattdeutsch), French and I really want to be a badass in Spanish one day)
FOOD is always great to share! Food is great in general.
While drinking some beers or wine, we can always share a lot of stories and have good discussions.
