ABOUT ME

A kind, maybe a little bit quiet person, always looking for new experiences.
I am easy going, tidy, patient guy and love hanging out and meeting new people, cooking, being surrounded by nature, listening to music and much more :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Obviously, I like traveling and would like to expand my perspective on the world further and that's where you come into play ;)
Couchsurfing is a great way to get to know people really well, have a good time together and learn from each other, all this while saving money and getting a much more "local" experience than staying in a hotel.

Interests

I like taking photos to capture special moments in my life and of course the things that make you awe at nature and humankind.

While traveling (or while boringly staying at home ;) ), I like to immerse myself in a good book or in music, though I am currently redefining my musical taste and shifting away from classics/metal to.. Well, I don't know where. If you have any suggestions for good music, I would very much like to hear them! The same goes for books and movies as well!
