Hello, my name is Mathis !
I recently finished school and wanted to follow my urge to travel as far away as possible.
I am more of a calm guy but nevertheless open minded.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In my opinion Couchsurfing is the most suitable opportunity for Backpackers, like me, to meet new people and getting another point of view concerning the country I'm visiting.

Interests

My interests are wide spread, so I'm only gonna list some of my hobbys.
- I do Judo since my 7th birthday ( It's a self - defence sport).
- I am interested in Photography and want to develope my skills while I'm travelling.
-Since my family owns a little farm, I like to care for animals.
- While I went to school, I developed a huge interest concerning Natural Science

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a passionate music lover, my favourite kind of music is the wide field of Rock, for example : Alternative Rock, Punk Rock, Classic Rock, etc. .
Though I like to experience other kinds of music.
I am going to visit New Zealand, so how could it be any diffrent that I'm a huge fan of "Lord of the Rings". I also admire the movies in which Johnny Depp is acting and much more than I could list here.
You could say, that I'm an avid reader, my favourite author so far is Stephen King.
I guess every genre has its virtues but I am averse to romantic novels.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once orderd at Subway, without getting asked if I want anything else.

Teach, Learn, Share

I didn't gatherd as much experience at this point, but I'm willing to learn from other people about life and it's pitfalls.
I am able to teach some German and maybe some self defense tricks.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Since I am a Backpacker I can just offer to help my host in any way he or she asks me to.
I guess you could say that I am very cooperative and open minded.
