About Me

Hello i'm Christian,
I am studying Agriculture and Biology (which means the wonders of mother nature ;) ) in Stuttgart. Therefore I quit my job as a chemical worker in 2016. In the last years I mainly travelled to countrys, which are on Americas black list like Cuba, Iran and Pakistan or recently had a revolution behind like egypt and Sudan. I had wonderful and difficult times there, but I think I learned a lot about humanity, dreams and life. If you are not afraid now you are welcome to visit me in my place and listen to storys of 1000 and 1 nights :))
You can also find some storys on my blog: http://travellikeawilddog.com/ ;)

ABOUT ME
I am an easy going person, always beeing interested in meeting new people and different cultures. Therefore I take my backpack and travel to the unknown diamonds of this world. People from outside call me adventoures, some call me crazy, but infact I am very cautious and carefull. I am looking for a Challange not for risk and trouble. And I wanna jump across the fence, which seperating Our nations, to See a world behind from black and White! Walking in the nature is also a very valuable thing for me.

I love to hike, especially in the mountains. A very amazing experience, was to cross the pyrenees from France to Spain and beeing part of a very crazy festival called la patum! (Almost everything was on fire :D)

Life is short but a smile takes only a few seconds, thats how I live.

If you like I would be proud to meet or host you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To spent a nice day with nice people, want to be a part of their culture and get inspiration for my own lifestile

Couchsurfing on my trip in Iran was a amazing life changing expirience for me!

I think everyone should can afford travelling, wether if you have money or not. I wanna share my room, coz accomodations are the biggest expenses on a travel.

I met many people in Stuttgart, who have been here for applying their desired university / job or chasing other dreams. I love to help fullfilling their dreams with giving an accomodation for their stays in the city.

I wanna improve my language skills. My English is good, coz I travel a lot and my university is quite international, but this will not last forever. I also will start to learn Spanish this Semester. So all English and Spanish speaking people I need your help :))

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ATTENTION:
I tought long about writing this section, but on my recent travel I had some unpleseant situations that made me thinking about the true meaning of couchsurfing. I am an easygoing person, but please read the following sentences if you are really interested to host me or be hosted. May it sounds a little bit rough but I want to drive it out and not be missunderstood. At least I tryed to write it in an Ironic way ;)

For Hosts:

I am doing Couchsurfing for having a cultural exchange not for a free accomodation.

1) If you dont have time for me please dont accept my request
2) Dont accept my request and tell me later that I have to go to a hotel, coz your familiy dont like foreigners or your new cat has occupied the couch. I am travelling since 2013 and I am able to find a hotel by myself and in my opinion thats not the real meaning of couchsurfing, If you just wanna meet people tell me before or use the hangout-function.
3) Dont waste my time and tell me, we do some activities together and change your mind tomorrow, coz a new counterstrike has been realized or the sun is suddenly to shiny

For Guests: I doesnt Matter If you try Couchsurfing for the First time or Not. I also dont Claim any present but ...

1) I am not a 24 h free hostel. Please spent some time with me, I like to listen to your storys
2) May you wanna wait and collect some offers to see if there is not a better option or an more luxury apartment than mine. That wont work with me for one good reason. Its unfair against other Couchsurfers, who requests at the same time and can not be hosted, coz I am still waiting for your confirmation.
So if you dont answer and confirm your stay within 1 day, dont wonder if I decline my invitation.
3) Before you enter my place, please decide if over 40 references plus 30 friends on Couchsurfing and a public blog are enough for you to trust me.I usually prefer to meet Surfers in a public place first giving the chance to get to know each other better. I will defenitely not show you my passport to take pictures and let me treat like a criminal for beeing hospital!!! If you cannot trust people maybe Airbnb or a Hostel is a better option for you.
