About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy the summer, travel a little bit and overcome my laziness and work things out (last two are not going to happen)

ABOUT ME

Short story long.
None of this is true,
but somewhere behind lies a truth.

I am a rather calm person who does not get excited easily in positive and negative ways.

Don't mistake my direct and blunt way for unfriendlyness.

I don't have a plan.

In Berlin I work with homeless people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I got to know quite a lot CouchSurfers in St.Petersburg at CS meetings in 2010/1. Since than I have hosted and surfed a little bit.
Now İ am on a road trip in turkey and the Caucasus.

I think couchsurfing is a great project. But İ hardly dislike that it has to monetize now to create profits for it's investors.
45€ for middle European States. Ok. But för countries with an average monthly salary of 300€ or so. Da Fuck?!
Trustroots maybe an alternative.
