About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Work hard, party long, travel far, rock & suck up life as much as I can!

ABOUT ME

Hi, my name is Flo, I'm from Bavaria (yes, the cliched "Oktoberfest/Beer/Leatherhosn"-part of Germany and of course we all wear this stuff the whole day!)
Actually I am opening a new chapter of my life and the first step was: GET OUT. I thought I would have known and seen a lot, but gladly I realized that I haven't even scratched the surface yet... well maybe it's a tiny scratch now.

How to describe oneself... hmm, supposed I met myself, I'd summarize it that way: easy going, honest, thinking, open minded and respectful guy! A water (frozen or liquid)-loving life philosopher who's always hungry for LIFE EXPERIENCE and some action loaded rock adventures...

The other side of the coin: I know, what I want in my life and I never choose the easy way to get it... you appreciate things more then.. some might say that's just a stupid way to do it anyway.. however, it's me.

My "To do list" so far:
- Surfing SoCal + PacificCoastHighway- AGAIN & AGAIN!!
- Skydive- canceled 3 times!! Memo: no more partying the day before
- Rock Vegas and LA- twice done, revival def necessary
- Step on Golden Gate Bridge in disrupted jeans- check!
- See sunrise on east coast and
- sunset on westcoast- done
- New York, New York! -50% done
- the Graaand Canyon! -seen
- Road trip across the country 50%
- feel pure nature.. yes, stunning tranquility
- Chicago- doing it again!
- Portland- gay bars & goth clubs??!! FUN Though!!

... plus meet new people, hear different life stories, rock various bars & clubs, chill out at beautiful places and maybe even find new friends on the way...

PHILOSOPHY

Always searching for a new life changing experience & the feeling, that comes on this way... widen my horizon and sharing it with others.

Try it all, break limits & get beyond them, become a better man... until someday I might find, what I was looking for.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I got addicted by this life changing fever here on CS the moment I met my first host... for sure as soon as I'm settled down back in Europe (or wherever the flow leads me to) I will welcome every CS looking for a comfy place and open for a small adventure apart mass tourism!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I can't remember enjoying life as much as during my last CS-Surfs... An unbeliefable experience... God knows, why I waited sooo long to give it a try. A new door I just walked through and a whole universe of people, minds & feelings that opened up to be discovered.

Interests

My interests are almost limitless.. I love challenges in everyway as well as things that make me relax... sports is one way, f.e.
snowboarding, skiiing, rock climbing, swiming, wave surfing, kitesurfing, parkour/freerunning, yoga, pilates, playing football & tennis, downhillbiking, slacklining, paragliding... but whenever I can try something new I do it, just try me!

I like movement in my life, visiting other countries or cities, peeling off the old skin and jumping into a new world & language as a foreigner, starting all over, explore cultures, maybe even find new friends... and sometimes all I need is just sitting at the seaside/ mountainside/... and suck in pure nature or drinking a cup of maroccan mint tea playing back gammon..

Besides this active part of mine, I absolutley enjoy listening to music (essential), cooking and baking (especially that!) and trying all kinds of good food & vine or just relax playing Back Gammon, Cards, Chess etc.
And if there's some time left in my daily schedule, I'd suck books learning foreign languages, life & philosophy, history, politics...

But the one thing I always looked and will look forward to is: having a beer with my friends at home, talking about life and what it's all about and havin fun together...

And not to forget: I love medicine, the way becoming a good doctor, learning life long and all the options, creativity and tools, that you can use to help others...

Music, Movies, and Books

whoohooo, there's tons
...
MUSIC: just get on youtube and try Foo Fighters, Mark Ronson, Portishead, Chemical Brothers, Hellacopters, Kosheen, The XX, David Guetta, Massive Attack, Sublime, Jackson 5, Kiss, Paul Kalbrenner, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Beatsteaks, Jack Johnson, all kind of classics vom 60s to 90s as well as classic music itself ...

MOVIES: depends on, sometimes I really like to be entertained just by action and simple stories, sometimes I need a complex drama or story and a protagonist, that I can identify myself with, a story that needs you to stay focused and binds you...

BOOKS: of course medical stuff, but also literature about life philosophy, history & culture; especially works from Hermann Hesse and Stefan Zweig (German/Austrian authors) and unique books like "House of God", "Tuesday's with Morrie", "The Alchemist", ...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Business guy on Wall Street putting down a lunch bag next to a drug addict young woman who was passed out on the boardwalk... for me, that was amazing to see.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm on my way to become a surgeon and for sure I can teach you f.e. how to take care of and suture wounds (if somebody really wants to learn that, haha- you can't imagine, how often I could use this stuff in my little medic suitcase, when I was travelling around.. people always hurt themselves, step into broken glass, sea urchins etc!
But I can also tell you about all the "wonders" in medicine, health, cancer, facts and myths, how our body works or just common stuff, too. What is the best treatment for common cold-favourite one!
Besides I'm half German/half Austrian, so I can tell a lot about our/my culture, how to get there, what to do and see etc.
Yes, and I have two (almost) healthy, strong arms and hands, so if there's anything I can carry, treat or help, I will help! And don't hesitate to ask!!
Besides I can offer to be an interested student, discussion partner and listener to whatever you could teach me.
