I am 49 years old and live in a small village called Aresing, 50 km northwest from Munich. I am married, my wife Malle is a teacher for English and P.E., my daughter is 18, my son 17 years old.
Upon graduation as a mathematician I set up my own business with software engineering and vocational training. Since 2001 I am Rotarian in Rotaryclub Schrobenhausen-Aichach and involved in youth exchange, first at club level and from 2003 on in the district team, since 2009 as chairman. In this function I appreciate to communicate with lots of friends all over the world.
I like traveling, sport and music. As a child I enjoyed soccer, table tennis and swimming. Later than I preferred volleyball, badminton, dancing, skiing, hiking and cycling. Unfortunately for some years problems with my knees affect negatively my activities. In my younger days I played the piano and the guitar, as grownup I sang in a choir for many years.
For many, many years I wanted to travel to Brazil. I am very happy to have the opportunity now to make my dream real. While having a lot of good Brazilian friends, exchange students in Germany or Rotarians at international conferences, I am looking forward to get a first-hand insight into Brazilian culture and lifestyle.

I am 20 years old and I live together with my
parents as an only child in a house at the outskirts of Munich. During the
autumn/winter 2011/2012 I spent five months in Portugal for working in a
hotel and to learn something about the Portuguese culture and language.
In autumn 2012 I am going to start a 3-years-long apprenticeship, the German
"Ausbildung", in a hotel.
My hobbies are reading books, meeting my friends for cooking together,
travelling and doing different kind of sports. I like the nature, that's why
I go out for cycling or swimming, especially when the sun comes out.
I love the sunshine weather, in the spring when all new plants are growing
and in the summer when the flowers bloom. For these special moments I take
my camera and do a lot of pictures.

I am 23 years old and I live in Kempten (Allgäu). It is
a town in the South of Bavaria next to the boarder to Austria and
Switzerland. I am living at home with my parents and one sister. I have two
sisters and one brother. My father is a Rotarian at the RC Kempten.
The last four years I worked as an industrial mechanic for a machine
building company called "Liebherr". Before I started my apprenticeship as an
industrial mechanic, I passed my A levels. In autumn I am going to study
mechanical engineering at the university.
In my spare time I like to go out to the nature. In Winter I love to play
ice hockey with my team and skiing with my friends. In summer time I go
hiking every weekend on the mountains, which are very close to my home.
Afterwards I meet my friends at one of the beautiful lakes in my region and
go swimming. I like travelling and I am interested in other countries and
cultures.

I am 18 years old. My parents and I are living
in a nice suburb next to Augsburg. I am an only child and this might be
boring from time to time. Therefore I often play with my cat called Leo or I
meet some friends for going to the cinema, out on weekend or we cook
something. In my leisure time I go playing football two or three times a
week in a team called JFG Lohwald. I am also part in hobby team since this
year. In the winter I often go skiing with my family or jogging whit a
friend out of my village.
I hope to graduate from high school this June although have not already
settled on a subject for my university studies. Perhaps I will study
Industrial Engineering or Law. Nevertheless I want to take a few months
"break" after my A level and get to know some new experiences. Thus the
exchange to Brazil is a great possibility for me to discover the different
culture, lifestyle, traditions and brazilian cities, but also the famous
nature like the Iguazú-waterfalls. Maybe I will even get the chance to see
some of the awesome street soccer players who could become a professional
player like Ronaldo or Pele.

I am 21 years old and I live in Tutzing, a little town near Munich. With my
mother and my stepfather. I have an older sister, Nora, and three
stepsiblings, Julia, Christian and Claudia. My sister and I are very close,
she is one of my best friends. My father lives in Munich as well. Family is
very important to me.
At the university I study the History of Art, which I think is very
fascinating. I like it a lot! After the Bachelor of Arts degree, I would
like to add a Master of Art combined with Business Administration. After my
graduation from university I hope to find a job in a gallery, a museum for
modern art or maybe at an auction house.
I really like to make plans about my future. I am an optimistic person and I
always see the good things in persons and situations. I think it is very
important to be interested in the things that happen around us, in the
world, but also the things next to us. I can not relate to people who do not
seem to care at all.
One of my stepsisters spent one year of school in Brasil, and since that,
she calls it her second home. That was one reason why I was excited right
away by the idea of spending some time in that country. The other reason was
that it is my wish to use the summer of 2012 to gain some new experiences.

I am 18 years old and I am living with my parents and my
brother in a house in Hienheim. The distance between Hienheim and Munich is
about 100 kilometers.
I visited the secondary school. It was a school only for girls and I
obtained in July 2010 the General Certificate of Secondary Education. In
September 2010 I started my apprenticeship for an industrial manager and I
hope to graduate in May 2013.
I have my own horse called Santana and I do horseback riding every day after
work. Also we have two cats called JJ and Mau and two huskies called Aki and
Ajax. In the evening I like playing the violin or reading a book. In winter
I do skiing or snowboarding and in summer I like cycling or swimming with my
friends. Also I am one of the leaders of a social youth organization. There
I have to organize trips and meetings. So I am always in action. But now I
want to get to know new experiences in Brazil.

Lisa Unterhitzenberger
I am 18 years old. I have four siblings but only two of them are living at
home in a semi-detached house. At the moment I'm preparing for my
examinations in May 2012 ("Abitur"). I'm planning to attend college in the
fall.
Since three years I am a member of a child care group. We want to show the
children how much creativity they really have. This work is a lot of fun for
me because I love to work with children because of their easiness and their
love of life and I love to be creative.
My biggest hobby is dancing. It's my passion to dance hip hop. I'm dancing
in a dance company of seven girls. Dancing is for me love, happiness,
emotionality and security. Further I love to spend time with my friends.
They are beside my family the most important people in my life because they
always support me and they also give me a lot of power.
With this journey I hope to widen my horizons and gain experience in
lifestyles different than my own. In general I do not have any special
expectations concerning Brazil. For me the most important point is to get to
know another culture with all its different aspects and to get to know the
people I would be fortunate enough to come in contact with. For me it would
be a dream come true.
