About Me

CURRENT MISSION

...ready to take off!

ABOUT ME

hmmm,...how to describe myself in a few words...- that's not a very easy task.
Ok, I'll try my best:

You can probably describe me as a rather calm, but curious and interested, kind, easygoing, down to earth, happy person who is always looking to learn something new about people, life and things.

I love to travel, see places that I haven't been to yet, meeting locals and to dig into their culture, try local food and have someone show me his favorite places in town.

I've lived in New Jersey (US) for a year, when I was 16, and in Padua (Italy), when I was 22.

Unfortunately my studies (German and international law) are rather time-consuming at the moment. This is why - even though I'd love to - I can't promise you at the moment that I'll have a couch for you. Things will change in February when I'll have finished my last exam (yeahee!!!).

In any case, there will still be time to show you around pretty little Muenster, have you over for dinner or meet you in town for a coffee or a beer.

PHILOSOPHY

you never know what's awaiting you behind the next corner. go and check it out!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Since Muenster usually isn't THE first stop when visiting Germany, but rather just a cute little town to live and study in, there haven't been too many couch surfing requests so far.
Still we always have plenty of friends and over night guests over.
Thus, at the moment, it's mostly me who surfs other people's couches.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm rather new to couchsurfing.com.
I had my first couch surfing (and similar) experience in Israel (Tel Aviv, Haifa, Jerusalem). This was an awesome experience, it really couldn't have been any better. This way we got to know a completely different Israel than other people that only have their guide book to follow.

Interests

I really enjoy music, photography, going to concerts and having friends over for dinner for some good food, good conversation and a glas of good wine.

Music, Movies, and Books

music - close to anything, although i probably like best
indie and accoustic.

i'm not that much of a movie watcher...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- spontaneous less than 24 hour trip to Riga (Latvia)
- horseback riding through the wonderful Sicilian landscape even though I've never sat on a horse before
- hiking through the Negev (Israel)

Teach, Learn, Share

if you come over to my place i can teach you how to make fresh Italian pasta (yummy!!!) and my flatmates can teach you how to juggle if they're in town.
