Travelling
Description
Hey!
My name is Franz and I just graduated from highschool. Before I enter university I would like to use this year to gain new experiences and to make use of my time. Traveling means exploring new cultures and new ways of life. To me traveling generally means immersing yourself in new things within a new place.. I always like to try things I don't know yet (I love trying new foods for example).
My goal is to see as much of the world as possible and I believe through travelling and cultural exchange one can broaden his horizons. In my free time, besides traveling, I like to read, watch movies or just go out to meet up with friends.
I believe helping others and being of value to others also brings value to your own life. That's why I would like to do volunteer work.
Volunteering is not only about seeing the world but also about doing something that provides benefit for others. Helping others in whatever way is something I find very rewarding.
My plans for the future are basically to study to become teacher next year. So the best would be to be able to volunteer in teaching positions. I am very fond of learning languages as well as teaching them as it is a form of cultural exchange. Cultural exchange is something which is, in my opinion, important so one can learn to really understand the world and why things in the world are as they are, without judging them. So language exchange and teaching languages opens many chances for all sides.
Lastly I can just say I am really excited to get started on my journey and thanks to everyone reading this! :)Interests

As I just graduated from highschool I do not possess any formal degrees yet. However I am fluent in two languages (German and English) and intermediate in another one (Spanish), I have a lot of foreign friends with whom I usually converse in English and to whom I also occasionally teach German. I also used to and actually still assist my smaller siblings in learning English.
Besides that I know how to cook several dishes and I am able to do normal household chores (cleaning, washing dishes, ironing, etc...) as I do that at home too.
I am also able to do (professional) photography and videography as I always assist my dad (a professional and self employed photographer) at events such as weddings or livestreams.Age
