I'm a 21 year old American student. I've grown up in California but I'm looking to leave now. I'm moving to Germany for school soon. I'm an EMT in the USA. I'm a very open-minded person and am fascinated by other countries, cultures, and languages. I'm a bit of a computer nerd (was pursuing a double major on software engineering and biology, now just biology).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hoping to find a temporary stay while I check out some apartments in Bonn.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: LotR, Prestige, Watchmen, Galaxyquest, there's more but not off the top of my head.

Books: Catch-22, LotR, The Hobbit, The Afghan Campaign.

Music: A lot of punk and alternative. Some german bands too. I vehemently despise country, country pop, and pop in general. I just want more substance in my music than what those genres offer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saved a 3 year-old boy while I was lifeguard a few years ago.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can help teach proper English. Particularly with expanding your vocabulary. I can also teach CPR and first aid.

I'd love to have some help with my German. There aren't many german speakers here.

I've got some great stories from when I was working as an EMT in Hollywood.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a fairly good cook and wouldn't mind cooking for my host, provided there are some fresh ingredients.

I've been to many parts of the USA and I can help you understand their differences and cultures.

I have an excellent grasp of the english language and can assist you in perfecting it.

If you are brave enough I can give you a few lessons in slacklining.
