CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Hi, my name is Max.

I am 20 Years old, went high school, went travelling Australia for 9 months and study in Berlin right now.

PHILOSOPHY

I see myself as very tolerant and open minded, though nobody is perfect. I always try to see the good core in somebodies personality what helps me to get along with most different sorts of people and attitudes. This is due to my belief that everybody has the right to live out his freedom and do what he wants as long as this doesn't bother or harm sb else. I could write much mor as this is a major part of all the thoughts crawling around my mind day and night (and which i would love to exchange with other people, btw), but I think thats pretty much the essence.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

give you a place to stay 4 a couple of days ;-)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

none with couchsurfing,

got in contact with a couple of people traveling, know how it is like not to have a couch to crash in...

Interests

I love sports such as beachvolleyball or soccer and keeping myself fit with a bit of jogging and and gym exercise, though i am probably keen on any other kind of sports as long as theres some action involved. For the future i would like to get into climbing or Streetrunning as well as learn to swim properly ;-)Besides I also enjoy hiking, but not only for the exercise thats in it ;-)
Nevertheless I dont take any of my Sports activities too serious for I got a big thing for just relaxing and chilling out, whatever that means...music,smoke,drinks,books,magazines etc. Sometimes I can also go party, depends on my mood and the situation. I guess sometimes I need a kick in the ass...
Apart from that I love to watch Graffiti and anything else that is going on in the streets. I am interested in politics and social developments.

And yes, I am infected with the Travel Bug, I wanna see the whole world, Australia is just the beginning, i got big plans and little money, so watch out world, here I come.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking in the Blue Mountains (k.. sounds boring, but was exactly the opposite, considering the search for water on a ridge, the amazing $ astonishing nature&wildlife inside the forest,the grand views from the tops, the detox, the exercise, the conversation with my mate, the shower afterwards).

theres so much more to write about than one thing, thats so unfair ;-)
