ABOUT ME

Hello guys and girls, welcome to my couchsurfing profile!
Lets give u a small briefing about me, my life and of course: my unicycle-propelled cat. Here we go.
I'm Matthew, 22 years old and I really love my life being an sometimes hardworking student in Vienna.
Nowadays I study some technical stuff like Mechanical Engineering at the technical university. Sounds a bit boring? - Well I know. But I really love to wear this stylish plaid shirts.
I love joking, hanging out and spending some uncomplicated time with friends or nice people.
But my life is not only about gags. I also enjoy to have a serious discussion or to spend some time on my own. Reading a book, thinking about anything, playing with my guitar.
Last but not least: I'm a believing Christian. I love the lifestyle of love and peace for anybody.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm a hopeless optimist. I don't see problems. I see challenges.
I love to reflect about life. But I think it's important to understand that life is an adventure. A journey and there are so many things to discover!

"One should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself." - The Golden Rule
"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary." - Steve Jobs
"It's meeting other people that makes life really worth while." - Guy de Maupassant

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I never did. But I'm really looking forward to make this experience! ;)

Interests

Let's list some of them...
I really love to listen and also to make some music (with instruments, clapping or just hammer with a pen at the desk - anything can be used to make some awesome sound ;) )!
Smart People Smoke Pipes! - I love this shit.
In fact sports like cycling, jogging, fitness...
I'm a passionated cook. Maybe because I'm in love with tasty food.
I love to meet friends, doing some funny - maybe a bit wacky things.
