ABOUT ME

hey guys and girls, i´m Eric, 21 years old and i currently live in Berlin.
last year i graduated from highschool and just recently i finished my civil service year which means im free at last.
When i was 16 i lived and studied in new zealand for one year and my experiences there pretty much got me hooked up on travelling and meeting other people from all over the world to share oppinions, getting to know other cultures or simply just have a great time together.
At the moment im waiting for the universities to start but then again im not totally sure what i want to study at all. Photography or teaching....thats the two things i brought it down to.
later in my life i also wanted to work as a development worker in third world countrys but thats still a long way.

PHILOSOPHY

in my eyes there is no person we cant get along with for if we greet everyone with an honest smile we´ll be sure to find friends everywhere (i hope that doesnt sound to greasy).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Sorry i havnt been here before.
i tried couchsurfing in america but things didnt really work out.
probably cause i didnt do my profile properly and hey....craigslist worked out fine.
but now im really trying to make cs work and maybe ur gonna be my first awesome cs experience to write about :)

Interests

uhm i used to play guitar a bit (for about 3 years) and im pretty much interested in photography.
digital doesnt really sparkle with me for once u learned how all those old cameras work and once u get the feeling of actually working for the picture,taking ur time to compose it u get pretty into all the old fashioned stuff.
