About Me

ABOUT ME

Well, I don´t really know where to start... At first the basic things. I studied Communication and Multimediadesign (Bachelor) and now I am working since September 2008. In october 2010 I start a Master in Konstanz (also Germany). Konstanz is a nice city next to Switzerland and the Bodensee lake. That is perferct, I love swimming and snowboarding, both I can to there. Anyway, I love sport. Party is also a sport, isn´t it?
I am a very open-minded and funny person. I like it to have nice and friendly people around me. But sometimes I also need moments for myself, as everyone I think... I am very satisfied with my life because I have everything I need to live. Lovely family and friends, a safe job and I am joung enough to get to know the whole world. And that it´s what I aim at. If I would have enough money and I would not have to spend my time on working for money, I´d like to travel my whole life. It is not enough for me to read or watch documentations about interesting countrys. I really want to BE there once in my life. I love my life right now and the people in it! And I want to get to know more people thinking like me.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life as I want to. But I try to keep in mind to never hurt or disappoint people trough my lifestyle. And till now, it worked very well :-)
My philoosophy, as far as I can mention it like this, is to live and to let live. It is a simple saying, but it´s very important for me to give anyone the same chance and repect and let them construct their life as they want. In return I also want everyone to let me live my life as I want to. Anyone should think and act independent.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Sorry, I don´t have any experiences with couchsurfing but I want to collect some!!

Interests

My interest are diverse. I like music in almost anyway, party and spend time with my friends. I like to speak with them about sometimes important but also somtimes about nonsense things, which I am occupied with. Of course I also like to make big party with them. I like to drink a glas (or bottle =) of red wine and to read a good book, mostly from Paolo Coelho.
I like to swim and do any sport. I gave many sports a trial, like Thai Bo, Spinning, Badminton, Tennis, Yoga etc.
And last but not least I love to travel of course. I want to visit each continent at least one time. I want to get to now interesting poeple who are living there or who are also interested in visiting that country.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing or better say feeling I had was in 2001, when I qualify for the german championchip in swimming. I will never forget that moment, when I finished the 100m on the back and looked to the timetable: 1:14,96 was my time and the time I had to underbid was 1:15,00. I just say WOW!! I know it is not a very important thing, but I´ve never felt like in these few seconds again.
