Interests
Listening to music - be it classical, rock, pop, electronical... basically everything that sounds good ;) Live concerts and festivals are always a great experience, too!
Going to the cinema or watching my favorite movies at home, preferably with friends and family. There is also a bunch of great documentaries out there worth watching.
Regarding sports: Biking, bouldering, hiking, swimming, stand-up paddling, rowing, everything you can do in the sea... Waves are awesome! Looking forward to learn surfing soon!
I love animals! And luckily I've got awesome, animal-friendly wildlife parks around here. There's nothing more relaxing than feeding goats, patting horses or watching birds. There's also a lot you can see when you keep your eyes open while going for a walk.
Another interest is travelling. I've already been to some countries (Great Britain, Greece, Portugal, Sweden). At the moment I'm catching up with all the admirable places we've got in Germany, too. I can dearly recommend to everyone to visit the Sächsische Schweiz, Mosel, Schwarzwald, Sylt, Königssee and many more.
