About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Seize life, go out and communicate!

ABOUT ME

I studied Geography to get around and get smart about our planet. I traveled a lot as a student and I had a great time with other travelers and locals. Most of the inspiring travelers I met were on their way for more than a few months. Most of the inspiring locals I met were deeply connected to there place. I found both really inspiring for my own way of thinking. I learned to appreciate the little but very special things in life. My occupation offers me an international background which i really like. I like to travel and I like to be a host!

PHILOSOPHY

We are one!
Respect and celebrate the differences instead of being ignorant!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had some couchsurfing experience before this site came up.
When I made my travel plans I spoke with friends of my friends (of my friends) and asked them if they would have a couch available. In this way I had my couch surfing experience in New York, Cleveland, San Pedro Sula (Honduras), Seattle, Vienna, Berlin, Munich, etc.. It is a great concept!
