About Me

CURRENT MISSION

cook delicious food in New Zealand

ABOUT ME

Hi Couchsurfers! What can I say about me? I think I'm an easy going guy who likes to enjoy live. I have a big passion for travel and I love to meet new interesting people. That's why Couchsurfing.com is just perfect.

I've been working as a chef in many places all over the world since I finished cooking school in Austria. I got a bit bored at home, so I started to travel as much as I could. I haven't been homesick since then I have to admit. :-)

Right now I'm stuck in Auckland, New Zealand where I have lived before but decided to come back since I love the atmosphere and the NZ way of life.

I try to enjoy life as much as I can and everyone is invited to join! ;-)

PHILOSOPHY

Every spot on earth has something interesting to share!

Enjoy life as much as possible

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I think of Couchsurfing I don't think of "staying for free in some strangers place (which is amazing)" I think of the many people I get to know. The locals, their lifestyle, their culture, their hobbies and of course since I'm a chef: their food! :-)

The most positive plus is, that you can see the "hidden" corners of places and cities which you would never see as a "normal" tourist.

That's the words I'm spreading to almost all the people I get to know (on the streets an elsewhere). That's how I participate in the CS Project!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The experiences I made so far where just incredible good. I met wonderful new friends all over the world through this side, and I'm still in contact with them. Can't think of a negative situation. CS-4-Ever!!!

Interests

Goal #1: EXPLORING THE WORLD
to get to know as many countries, cultures, interesting people and tasty food as possible.

After that I want to settle down in the place I liked it the most. :-) THATS THE PLAN!!!
