Overview
About Me
I'm Philipp (he/him), a 33 year old graduate (always used to write student, but these times are finally over) of Nonprofit Management from Germany and I love meeting people and communicating.
Since August 2023 I live back in my home area in Dortmund with my flatmate Sandra.
If you have questions about BVB and visiting the stadium for a match of Borussia Dortmund, you're welcome to ask me.
I support the idea of sharing, helping and being empathic. It's so easy to make people happy, even with smallest efford.
I try to see everything positive and constructive and not be angry about things I can't change. On the other hand I like to try changing things I don't like, if it's possible anyhow. I'm aware of very small decisions can change a lot in life - so I try to go for them. That's why:
I like the small things, perfection of unnessessary stuff and I'm lazy now and then. Lately I found out I'm some friends "favourite weirdo" as well as "social butterfly". So yes, I'm positively crazy and a "Spielkind".
My jokes can be aweful and I make a lot of them.

Music, Movies, and Books
In December 2018 a dream of mine came true when I had the chance to see Paul McCartney live in Kraków.
I like Balkan music like Dubioza Kolektiv or S.A.R.S. and their concerts. I like older German hip hop, the Beatles, Make A Move and Annenmaykantereit as well as Querbeat and Mayberg, Von Wegen Lisbeth and usually this and that.
I like Wes Andersons movies. Autors... I like Murakami and Milan Kundera, but I basically don't read to be honest.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I could talk to a woman who was a citizen of Leningrad, USSR, during the German occupation around the city. One of the most moving and goosebumpy experience of mine. The most precious thing for her is bread, because in this time, when everybody was dying from hunger, she was given a bread by a soldier for helping to find spies, what always stays in her mind and heart.
I walked over the border between Romania and Bulgaria at Calafat with a friend, before hitchhiking to the next city in Bulgaria. Bulgaria :) The country where I lived for a year to assist German teachers in a public school.
Teach, Learn, Share
Spreading ideas, exchanging views on the world.
Hm, I love to help with German language, talk about and guide to my favourite places in my current city and food, joy, towels and so on. And always a beer and good coffee of course.
