Description

Hi there,
I am currently studying medicine in Leipzig, Germany. Apart from my interest in the medical field, there are plenty other things that amaze me: the most important thing for me is to discover, communicate and not get stuck in the daily life. Also I am looking not only for new adventures but also learn and share what I have learned so far.
So far while traveling I never took the time to stay at a place for a longer period of time and I want to change that now.

The next months I want to explore the Arabic world and learn the Arabic language. That has different reasons: I love learning languages and speaking and specially Arabic is not only incredible beautiful but quite tough and I like the challenge. While looking in the future when I will probably work as a doctor I think it is a key to understand people with different cultural backgrounds and the best way to accomplish that is by gaining an understanding for these different cultures. And after studying for two years strait all the theory of how our body is working (which of course is very interesting) I need a change of places and do something new and not related to all that.
After my high school diploma I worked in a Kyrgyz school as a volunteer in a small village, learned Russian there and back in Germany while Covid was a big thing I i got some first insides in the German medical system as I worked as a paramedic.

While traveling in the past I often used Couchsurfing to connect with others and you can also check my profile out there as well: https://www.couchsurfing.com/users/2010756288?utm_campaign=profile_share&utm_source=couchsurfing-ios

More details about your skills

Apart from my medical training I gained working experiences in very different fields: in the Seminar and group house of my parents I helped in the kitchen and garden, and of course helped when there were many people arriving.
In Kyrgyzstan I worked in a small school and assisted the teachers in their English and German lessons. Since I am not a teacher I was not responsible alone for the classes but held extra lessons with the kids to impart fun at learning a new language.
I like to work physically and because that is not part of my Studies so far I joined the local firefighters. There I learned a lot on how to improvise and react to all kind of different situations as good as possible.
Generally speaking I love to learn new things and I am able to adapt myself to a lot of different situations quickly.

What else ...

I enjoy spending time with other people. Playing cards, cooking, dancing, or just laying on the carpet in our apartment and talking for the whole night. When I am alone I like to read books, watch documentary’s, fold origami and discover all kind of different music videos. Oh and I ran a marathon this spring because I had a really convincing friend and I finished it without expecting it. So I am quite open to all kinds of different sports. Hiking, climbing and running that I like the most
