ABOUT ME
I grew up in a very small town in a rather rural part of Bavaria, but then moved to Munich to go to university and since its a beautiful city I stayed there (also you don't give up a nice and cheap flat in Munich, that's not very easy to find ;-) ). I'm working at BMW now, unfortunately I'm still not driving one in my spare time, but I'm rather spending my first earnings on travelling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I don't have many CouchSurfing Experience yet, but I hope this will change during my roadtrip through California!
Interests
Well, narrowing down interests is a hard thing to do... I think like every member of the CouchSurfing project I love to travel! Unfortunately due to my studies and now my job I can't travel as much as I would like to do... Furthermore I love listening to music, I enjoy staying at home reading a good book with a nice cup of tea as well as being out in the nature and trying out a new kind of sports. In the moment I love hiking and mountainbiking, but I'm also thinking about joining a volleyball or basketball team in Munich (not sure if they will let me, it has been quite a time since the last time I played ^^). Well but mostly I enjoy hanging out with my friends, just sitting around on someone's couch and chat or in summer (as every resident of Munich) in a Biergarten or on the coast of the Isar, enjoying a cool beer.

Music, Movies, and Books
I can't live without music! Mostly I listen to Rock/Alternative/Indie-bands, but not exclusivly, so if you recommend a good band of any genre to me I promise I will at least listen to it! =)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I loved the geyser in Iceland, this country has such a beautiful and exciting landscape! Furthermore when I went to see the final of the European Football Championship in Kiev (Ukraine) in 2012 in met so many nice people. It was amazing to be on the Majdan Place with thousands of other Football fans all wearing the colours of their nations and celebrating together and I have to admit I never thought until that days that German people are so popular in other countries. (And it was very sad to see in the news what happened in the same place in 2014...)
