I just finished my Master in Graphic Design in Auckland to improve my English and to see the world ;-) I am a relaxed and fun person. I am considerate of the personal space and belongings of others and curious about other people's lifestyle, stories and opinions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I haven't "couchsurfed" yet. But I only heard very positive stories from people that I met, who experienced couchsurfing and I like the idea of having an expert of the certain city handy to be able to find the best insider tips for what to do and what to see. Through couchsurfing I hope to meet new people, get to know new cultures, interests, have a chat, maybe a drink and definitely a good laugh.
Please be aware that this is not a dating website and I am all happy on that front.

Interests

I love everything creative: art, design, any type of markets, movies (strangely I do forget the stories quickly afterwards), music and everything different to the day to day life.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to listen to most types of music (except hard core metal or minimal - they don't have a melody for me). Yet I find there is a difference to the type of music I like to dance to (pop, r'n'b, reggae, hip hop and some electronic music) and the type of music I like to listen to (most other types of music).
I don't have a favorite movie or a book. There are a few movies that I find a fun to watch such as the X men movies, The Grandhotel Budapest, a few of Tarantino's movies...I always enjoy watching action or comedy movies. No psycho thrillers or scary movies please ;-) and drama depends on my mood...
I like the book "the perfume" (it's a german book), "the picture of dorian grey" or "the art to have a creative life" - this sounds like a self-help book, I know, but it's more about finding the balance of being creative in the job and in private.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Left my homecountry to study on the other side of the world ;-)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you German or English conversation, but please don't ask me about the grammar rules - I won't be able to give you an explanation.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Hopefully my humor, being open-minded and curious. I love to go out dancing, but I also enjoy boardgames nights and a movie plus popcorn at home can be as much fun. I am a very sociable and like to meet new people and share an evening or two together. I love baking and eating it too ;-)
