ABOUT ME

Hello,
I am Sven, a 24-year-old German who loves to travel - What else does the world expect from Germans?;)

I love to spend time with my friends but also to meet new ones all around the world. I love to laugh and live! My passion is music - listening or playing!

I was born and raised in a small town near Hamburg, Germany. After school I went to New Zealand to work in a College for one year. I traveled a lot there and returned to Berlin to study English, Education and Economics. Since August 2012 I've finished my Bachelor and I am now employed at Grinnell College as a Language Assistant for one year and want to see this side of the ocean.

PHILOSOPHY

Life comes first!
Eventhough I want to finish my Master soon to work as a teacher, I believe that people should enjoy their lives and their youth before it is too late.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
