About Me

Hello world! My name is Matt. Hmm, if I had to describe myself, I guess I would say easygoing, funny, inquisitive, sociable, and a bit of a nerd. You will rarely find me in a bad mood - I find life to be more enjoyable that way.

Ich kann auch ein bisschen Deutsch sprechen. Ich brauche es zu üben, also kontaktiere mich!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It might not seem like much, but when I visited Germany with my friends to go to Oktoberfest, I stayed with a German host - he was awesome and super friendly and invited me to go with him and several of his German friends to Oktoberfest one night. Now, Oktoberfest is already one of the most amazing experiences I've ever had, but spending it at a table with native Germans and chatting, drinking, and singing slurred words to traditional German festival songs that I don't even know was simply an epic experience of bonding and comradery with my fellow citizens of the world. It was an amazing, authentic German Oktoberfest experience!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can show the city, restaurants, bars, etc. I can share good music, beer, and bourbon whiskey. If you're into video games, I have a huge collection of retro and modern game consoles and games that we can play. Also, a bit unconventional, but if you're into cars, I have a high performance MKIV Toyota Supra that I can show you and take you for a ride in. It's basically a thrill ride. haha

What I Can Share with Hosts

Engaging conversation and general awesomeness. haha
