Overview
About Me
Fun, outgoing guy who likes being with people and getting to know them. Enjoy being in motion and experimenting with life. Also have a serious side and big dreams to accomplish, but I am comfortable leaving my worries behind every once in a while. I use any chance I get to experience new and exhilarating things in life.
Hosting guidelines:
• 2 nights minimum stay - so that we have time to actually get to know each other
• My housemates don't bite and would love to interact with you, but if they withdraw to their rooms, leave them be
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I enjoy meeting people and getting an insight into their everyday life. It is simply better experiencing a new place when you see how the people truly live there.
Interests
I am fascinated by languages and will gladly anytime help you practice a language you're currently learning or constantly bombard you with questions about your native language. Due to my personal story I have a strong interest in developing policies and structures for the benefit of society. Other than that I just enjoy doing whatever life provides me the opportunities with.

Teach, Learn, Share
Languages, travel stories, experiences, memorable moments...
Happy to teach or explore rock climbing, have all the gear and enough patience to introduce beginners.
Would love to improve my dancing skills, looking for salsa/bachata partners!
What I Can Share with Hosts
I love cooking and would gladly prepare a meal together. IMPORTANT: If you want me to consider your surfing request, mention your favorite dish in the request! Always up for a short night hike on the nearby hill or a quick jump in the lake.
