I am Philipp and I am 29 years old. I am from Germany and I currently live in Leipzig which is near Berlin. At the moment I am on a 3 week bike trip through France to get to know the country and the people. I am looking for a job and I really would like to work abroad. I thought about working in France (Paris would be my favorite city) because France and the French people always fascinated me although I have never really been to the country. So I figured it would be best to use my remaining time to check out if France and Paris would be a nice place for me to stay. I studied computer science and now I am working as a programmer for iOS apps. I have a girlfriend but unfortunately she didn't have the time to travel with me. So I am looking forward meeting you :-)

Music, Movies, and Books

I like College a capella music a lot although it's a bit strange ;-) besides that I like every kind of music except too hard rock or metal music.
I like movies with happy ends and hate horror movies. My favorite movie is Forest Gump although the end wasn't so happy at all. :-/

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
