About Me

CURRENT MISSION

meet nice people all over the world.

ABOUT ME

I always try to be a kind and respectful person.
The story of my life? I grew up with really nice parents who taught me the value of respect.
I completed a Master’s degree at university and then worked for two years. After that, I decided it was time to see more of the world and bring more adventure into my life. So here we go:

In the summer of 2014, I spent 10 weeks in North America. It was a good, easy start to traveling, and it helped me improve my English.
In Germany, I worked as a software developer, and I still occasionally learn new things in that field.

But I also fight against discrimination and racism. I’m a member of a political party in Germany that supports these causes. It’s heartbreaking to see what’s happening in the world—and how little is done to help people in need.

Another adventure was making music on the streets of Munich. I played piano and a friend played saxophone, and we actually made good money doing it. It’s amazing to earn money from your hobby!

I also traveled for five months through Latin America—from Argentina to Mexico—visiting eight different countries and collecting many interesting and funny stories along the way!

OTHERS ABOUT ME
I love my life and like to do amazing or just different stuff. :D

PHILOSOPHY

Try to be a good person and live your life. Be awesome!
