ABOUT ME

I am 25 years old and come from Dresden (Germany).
When I'm not at the university I spend my time doing sports, playing the guitar (fingerstyle), longboarding, going to (outdoor) concerts and theatre, and of course party with internationals and personal development.
I would describe myself as open-minded and friendly. I am very curious about the world, cultures and countries and different and alternative ways of leading a life! I really enjoy getting to know new people, listening to their thoughts and being inspired by them. I am always trying to develop and challange myself, my philosophy and power of mind. I enjoy learning new things a lot. I always try to be respectful with the people surrounding me.

PHILOSOPHY

Nothing must happen, but everything can. Relax and enjoy live. Live it your way. Be inspired by other people but don't compare (to) them.
Try to keep the balance - balance regarding present and future, work and spare time, yourself and others, your brain and your heart.
The world you live in is built by your own mind.
Find a respectful and mindful way with your own emotions and thoughts, and free yourself from the limits your mind sets you to be free.
Gratitude is an important ability - not only a state.
Do not expect too much from others - accept that everyone lives in a different world and accept that they do and do not can give certain things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Had some experiences as guest in Germany, Thailand and Spain.
