About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Studying in Düsseldorf.

ABOUT ME

Way too lazy to put something in here... tell you what, if you really want to know let's grab a beer and I'll tell you firsthand, first round's on me ;-)

PHILOSOPHY

"I have always depended on the kindness of strangers" by Tennessee Williams sums it up pretty accurately.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting and meeting up if time allows.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Excellent so far.

Interests

Working out, cooking and eating, writing and traveling. Oh and I'm volunteering as a first responder for the German Red Cross, so that counts too I guess.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like books of every genre, as long as they're well-written and/or lack sparkling vampires. What really grinds my gears is inconsistent writing, totally ruins the experience for me. I liked "To Kill a Mockingbird", I love "The Cask of Amontillado" and just read "The Transformation".

My taste in music depends on my mood, I guess. Like most people, there's nothing I wouldn't at least give a try once. Okay, boysgroups may not be my thing. Or Bolivian reggaeton *shudder*.

Movies, hm, can't go wrong with Tarantino flics huh? Apart from that, lately the number of decent German movies has been growing "Good Bye, Lenin!" being one of them. "Das Boot" despite its age, is one of my favourites.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchhiking through South America for three months all by myself. I got tons of stories :D

Teach, Learn, Share

If you want to know about Germany or Bavaria in particular, I'm the right surfer to talk to. Yes, leather pants everywhere and blonde ladies wielding beer mugs the size of small cars, it's all true.

Also, how to hitchhike and live to tell the tale.
