About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Getting notorious

ABOUT ME

I'm a guy who loves to laugh, eat, an talk (schnacken we say in German). Friendship means a lot to me. Friendship for me means to call your friend in the middle of the night in a emergency situation an he will not hesitate to help you immediately. That's what i would do.

PHILOSOPHY

Fight what scares you.

AND

Remember your own philosophy more often

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment I can help the CS2 Project only with my membership and by getting new friends around the world and talk about my good experiences with other. But i will definitely be a couchsurfing host when I am back in Germany and have my own flat.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm Surfing for 10 Month now and must say the people are just great. Like Andrei in Hiroshima or Frank in Cairns.
Like Michael a Couchsurfer I meet in Sydney said "You have to take a risk and trust people otherwise you will never know if they are trustworthy. I had no bad experiences so far.

Interests

I like watching movies, that's why I studied Media Science. I loved skiing but i had an accident 2 years ago and since that i wasn't skiing. I also like to party with my friends.
