ABOUT ME

I'm 33 years old and work in a highschool as teacher. My subjects are physical education, religion and italian.
I played quite good basketball when I was younger. That's why I met lots of Canadians who played for our team and who are really good friends now. I always try to integrate people from abroud and so I have friends from Canada, America, Italy, France and Spain and I can't wait to find more.
The most amazing thing in my life was when I studied in Siena Italy for 7 months. I had the best time there.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to live my life the best way I can. I want to have a good time with my family and my friends. I want to be there for them and help then whatever comes. Because they are the most important I have in my life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm going to travel west USA for about 2 weeks and it would be great to get to know new friends.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't had any experiences with couchsurfing yet but I can't wait to have my first ones. It's just an amazing opportunity to meet great people and share travelling experiences

Interests

I love to travel of course. That's one of the most important things in my life. There are only three things more important. Family, friends and sport. I studied sport and it's a passion for me to try differnt sports. Another hobby is reading and learning languages that's why I studied Italian.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have lots of favorite movies that's quite tough to find one. But I like even more American series.
I prefer indian music but I also listen to Hip hop and some house/electro. If I had to chose good bands it would be Belle and Sebastian, Coldplay and Death cab for cuties.
I've read lots of books but I really enjoyed the german ones from the bestsellling author Tommy Jaud especially Resturlaub which represents pretty good my hometown.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was in highschool I was for two month in France where I met my exchange partner and a really good friend. Then 3 years ago I travelled America and Canada to meet friends and relatives. The best experience was my half year time in Siena, Italy were I studied letteratura italiana. And of course my trip here.
Everything was awesome and unique and I don't want to miss any of those experiences.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm going to be a teacher so that should be a good opportunity to teach other people all over the world. I could teach languages especially German and Italian. If anyone is interested in German kitchen I can cook but more the modern food. I still have lessons for traditional franconian/bavarian food from my grandma and my mom.
And last but not least I can teach lot of different sports. I've studied that for 5 years so it should be enough for a good time.
I'm open for most of the different kinds of sports but my special ones are the european ones. I can't play any baseball, cricket or american football, so I hope I find a teacher for those sports. But I'm really good in basketball and also open for a good game.
