About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Making the best out of the rare free time in med school

ABOUT ME

I am a vegetarian, i don't like to waste a day with tv shows. I am bad in standing still and be always ready for some adventures.
Activity is the word, do something.

PHILOSOPHY

don´t get stuck, learn by trying
I always try to understand the people arround me

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I lived in Freiburg a friend of mine told me about his expiriences.A year later i joined the CS crew and now I love this way to get acquainted with people around the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Until now I just surfed. I hope i can give something back of the friendliness i recieved soon. During my travels through Australia CS helped me in lots of different ways.
Ending up teaching English for a week with 5 other CS guys in Thailand is just one of them.

Music, Movies, and Books

Into the wild is a great movie
Some of my favourite authors are: Tolstoi, Austen, Kafka, Hesse, Robert van Gulik
3 of my favourite books were Henry David Thoreau's Wooden or Live in the woods, Sebylle Lewitscharoff's Blumenberg and Cervantes Don Quijotte
It is a little bit harder to say which kind of music I enjoy.
I play cello and had singing lessons but i also listen to hardcore, enjoy indie, expierienced goa, dont like hip hop
All together i just love music and listen to very different parts of it

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A great thing was definetly the tour with 4 friends of mine through the alps. We carried all the stuff we needed with us like water,tent, food etc. No help from outside. It was great. Just walking up to 6h a day up and down the mountains, camp between rocks and have a bath in ice cold rivers.
Bridge jumping in austria...35m free fall, head first
I won a chess game in the first league although I spent the night in a club and havent slept at all.
Rock climbing in Bulgaria being like the 5th guy who was on the top within 20 years
