Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I'm on couchsurfing because I like the idea behind it and I made some good experiences with warmshowers.org, which is pretty much the same thing but especially for cyclists.
Music, Movies, and Books
Pretty much any kind of music, I like reading but I don't have a preferred genre and if it comes to movies, I'm not a big fan of the big Hollywood blockbusters or these popular comedies which all seem to have the same kind of humor and/or story.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
One of my most amazing experiences still is my exchange year to Malaysia. I lived in five different local families, went to two different schools and build up enough social relations to call Kuala Lumpur and Malaysia my home.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach people skiing since I've been a skiing instructor for the last four years. Also I am glad to take anyone, who wants to, skiing or hiking. I'd love to improve my Spanish and learn some new cooking skills.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Good talks, sharing stories, cooking,
My Interests
As you can see I have a lot of different interests. I am a very social and active person. Sports play an important role in my life.
