ABOUT ME

I'm not sure what to write here. =) I'm a self-taught Photographer from Berlin/Germany and am currently living in Saigon/Vietnam. I'm also an ambitioned filmmaker and at times make some music. I enjoy sports and would consider myself a relatively active person. Lazy too sometimes though. I like animals and one day would like to get me a dog again... not to eat though, just to cuddle. =) Now I'm already stuck with my description... I think I will have to work on this more. :) But you can also check me out via the links below.

PHILOSOPHY

It's so easy to be wise. Just think of something stupid to say and then don't say it.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment I'm more taking rather than giving, but I really hope that someday soon I will be able to give back again myself!

教，学，和分享

I could teach english or german. But since I don't have much teaching experience, probably it would be more based on the pronounciation.

I suppose there are a few tricks in photoshop I might be able to bring across. =)
