About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get to know the World and trying to get a Masters degree.

ABOUT ME

I moved to Berlin a year ago for my Masters and enjoy living in a big city, but I am always looking to get away. I am usually always up for a beer or a lazy afternoon in the park . I enjoy a good read or awseome music. Anyway if you in Berlin hit me up!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing in Russia a couple of years ago and had a wonderful time, by now I have my own place with my girlfriend Laura. We have a couch in the living room which is always open to potential surfers. As long as we are not in finals week ;)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfing in St. Petersburg and Moscow.

Interests

naturally I like to travel, Music espacially Alternative, Indie and Jazz Music. I like to read and go out have a nice beer, I guess that is just the German thing to do, have a beer. I do Taekwondo and started a lindyhop dance class. If you don't what lindy hop is I suggest you do some youtube research! It is fun!

Music, Movies, and Books

Big Fan of all Wes Anderson movies and the James Bond movies and Star Wars obviously. But also cool stuff like Kung Fury! I pretty much listen to all kinds of music, because I think there is to much good music out there as to limit oneself to one genre. I read a lot of different things but usually only find the time during my semester breaks.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Backpacking in Mali, Ghana and Burkina Faso.
Walking barefoot through a river even though it had a sign saying "beware of crocodiles".

Teach, Learn, Share

My parents are teachers so I don't teach! But learning is great.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A drink fist of all, my time and my experiences.

Countries I’ve Visited

Countries I’ve Lived In
