CURRENT MISSION
Get to see the world from different perspectives
ABOUT ME
I'm a sportive guy who loves to explore the world and get to know people from everywhere. I went to Texas for a year, lived in Beijing and Shanghai and travelled by the Trans-Mongolian Railway all the way from Beijing to Moscow to get a glimpse of what the outside of Germany looks like. I'm more than willing to get to know more about other people and countries.
Furthermore I'm a passionate gymnast, an ok-cook and I love to dance and sing (even though my singing is no good).
PHILOSOPHY
Just do it!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Even though I haven't hosted anyone so far, my sofa is available for people who want to surf at my place. Travelling and meeting people in Novosibirsk, Russia has been my main contribution so far.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
So far I got to know a couple of CSers by travelling. One of them is Barbara, a super intelligent and talkative girl who I travelled with in China and who got me involved in couchsurfing. Moreover I had an unforgettable time with couchsurfers in Novosibirsk.

Teach, Learn, Share
I taught English in schools and German to my girlfriend in China. I'm good at motivating people to do sports. I used to be a gymnastics coach - I can teach people how to do a handstand ;-)
I'd like to improve my Chinese and learn more about the different parts and about the history of China.
