About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Expanding mine and other's horizone

ABOUT ME

I live in a very small town, quite conservative and nothing exciting is about happening here. My destiny chose a boring life for me. But I'll oppose it by travelling around the world doing freaky stuff and meeting other freaky people. I led an ordinary life till I traveled with friends for the first time. It changed my whole point of view, maybe my current friends played a role, too...anyway, I play the guitar, play basketball, I like to read, meeting friends and makeing new experiences (whether they're good or bad).

PHILOSOPHY

"Beeing alive means having scars!"

The more you know, the more you can effect!
Sometimes you have to try something without thinking about it that long.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd like to support the treveler community as much as I can. I'm afraid I live in a small town no one likes to visit, but if this will happen once, I'll be ready and really apriciated to accommodiate you.
I also like to use this offer, because in my financial situation it's less expensive taking a greate trip.
But the most important thing for me is to meet people from other contries and build friendships all over the world. I already made these experiences in a hostel, but you never came into closer contact with anybody, no one exchanged addresses or anything else. I was kind of sad about that, so I hope Couchsurfing will offer me a whole new perspective of trevelling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Yes and it was great! I surfed some couches and all my hosts were so nice and cool and intersting. I also met many people from CS without surfing their couch or hosting anybody. They were great, too and made many things possible for me.

Interests

I like playing guitar and basketball. My passion is to travel, although I didn't get around a lot yet.
Also photography is becoming a new hobby of mine.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: changes all the time, of course I like all the classics, otherwise I like: The Persuade of Happiness, Amelie, all Johnny Depp movies, a beautyful mind.
Music: mostly rock, and calm stuff but I my playlist goes about every genre. Some artists for example: Limp Bizkit, Staind, Deftones, Incubus, System of a Down, Beaty Boys, John Williams, 2Pac, Yann Tiersen (soundtrack from Amelie), Ramirez (a Brzilian not well known band) and also some German bands like Die Ärzte, Rammstein and Kolkhorst (who is really unknown, but I was on a cocert in Vienna coincidencely and he makes very cool thoughtful music).
Books (authors): George Orwell, Paulo Coelho, Ken Follet, of course I like Harry Potter, too, but who doesn't?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

What was really amazing to me was my trip to New York which was my first trip I made all on my own, but I don't think it's very impressive on this page, but I'm looking forward to experience more interesting things.

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't want to say I can teach you this and want to learn that, but I would appreciate sharing everything I know at least a bit about. Otherwise I've always an opend ear to learn from you.
