Hey!

My name is Matthew, and I'm a 24 year old guy from the US. I just moved to Germany to work at a startup, and I'm looking forward to getting to know other places in Europe!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A friend recommended it to me as a great way to develop new relationships and create new connections while travelling, which is something I really enjoy doing. Hopefully I'd be able to learn more about the lifestyle in your country, and gain a better understanding of the culture there.

**This is my first time using CS, so that's why I don't have any friends or references, yet. Hopefully someone is nice enough to take a chance on me!

Music, Movies, and Books

I like a lot of different types of music ranging from R&B to hip hop, and from jazz to indie folk. A great film I saw recently was God's Own Country, and I'm currently reading some books about stoicism--my introduction to philosophy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moving to a new country without knowing anybody!

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to learn anything from you, but I love knowing things in different languages the most. So languages or any unique cultural traditions or food in your country.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would love to share my love of music with you and buy you a drink (unfortunately I'm not the best cook).
