Description
Hey, we are Viola and Thilo from Wuppertal, the town of the “Schwebebahn” (overhead railway). As a couple we live here together in our own apartment close to university where we are studying. In our long semester breaks we love to travel to get to know other cultures, countries and people.
Viola: I am studying psychology and would love to work in the field of environmental psychology one day. I enjoy making music, singing and dancing and I really like volleyball, art and cooking good food:) A great experience I´ve had was my voluntary environmental gap year where I’ve learned lots of things and worked outside nearly the whole year. Some things that make me happy: snow, people laughing, sunsets, delicious food, surprises, ...
Thilo: I am studying traffic and economics engineering. Before I started to study I was doing a voluntary social year at the IT-department of the museum “Haus der Geschichte”. I learned many different things about social interaction as well as coding. Besides that, I had a two-year scholarship of the world famous “WDR Big Band” about composing which was really instructive. I also play the electric bass in several ensembles, drums, double bass and a bit piano. Things that make me happy: complex rhythms, biking (with nice infrastructure for it), making music in a groupInterests
