About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live your dreams and enjoy your life - everything is possible! :=)

ABOUT ME

I would describe myself as a open minded, spontaneous and honest guy. I like laughing, moving, meeting people, cooking together ...

Here in Nantes I live in a student accomodation: it's awesome to open your door, to be in the middle of moving life, to cook eat together with your neighbours, or just to share the daily french "apéritif" with all the other crazy students. ;)

I just love travelling around, meeting new people of other contries and getting to know how they live their life! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing is AMAZINGLY INCREDIBLE !
All the fantastic experiences I had with! Too many to mention them all here ...
But maybe I'll tell you something about two of the most exciting ones:

-> During a two-month long hitchhiking trip through Scotland I asked two people if they could host me and their answer was: "No, we're sorry, unfortunatly we won't be at home on these days ... BUT: We are flying to Dublin and have a flightticket left because one of us changed his plans - do you wanna have it and join us? And yeah, of course I did and we had an awesome time there! I was soo amazed by this geniality! Offering a flightticket to an almost strange person ... incredible!

-> A couchsurfing event in Edinburgh. Early March 2009. Around 70 crazy couchsurfers met there to camp on Cramond Island where you can walk on by low tide. The tide came up, we were stuck on the island with our big bonfire and loads of funny ideas and good mood - awesome! :=)

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
The music I listen to changes very often. From House via Indie to Rock and approximatly once a year even a bit of Hip-Hop. The Killers, Boehse Onkelz, Bloodhound Gang to give you some examples.

Movies:
At this place I have to tell you that I forget very fast what happened in a movie that I have seen. But in my eyes it's an adventage: This way I can enjoy it several times! ^^
Some of my favourite movies are: Departed, Blood Diamond, Surf's Up.

Books:
When I was younger I read a lot of books, now it takes a long time until I start reading one. Mostly I like adventure or science-fiction stories like Illuminati or The Gone-away World.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One year ago I travelled around Holland by car with a friend. We loved living our days without worrying about the nights. And so, one day we slept on a parking area next to the sea. At two o'clock in the night we were woken up by a flashlight shining at us and two guys in uniform behind them. First we thought it was the police, but actually they were the night-watchers of a campsite which was situated near by. They threatened us to call the police if we didn't move and so we drove a few kilomters further in the dark night until we found another parking site where we installed our sleeping bags anew. When it became light we woke up again because it was raining at us - rain in a nice dry summer ?! where have we been sleeping?: under a sprinkler installation next to a football pitch! :D
