I grew up in a small town in the middle of Germany and moved to Nuremberg for studying after school. I just finished my bachelor's degree in industrial engineering. The next chapter will be an internship at the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung in Vietnam. I would describe myself as a friendly, open-minded and critically thinking person. I enjoy learning and discovering things, that are unfamiliar to myself. I am kind of intolerant against injustice and arrogance.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing means escaping the tourist side of traveling and discovering a country or a city in a more authentic way. With every stay (as host or guest) you learn and share something, no matter what it is.

Interests

Playing volleyball, listening to music, learning the guitar, drinking beer, demonstrating for peace and social equity. Most of the time just hanging out with people.
