CURRENT MISSION

Cycling from Turkey to Germany.

ABOUT ME

I am a 33-year-old primary school teacher from Berlin, Germany. I've lived in England for the last 7 years. I am currently taking a break from my job and have gone traveling around Asia with my girlfriend Emma.

We are just buying bicycles in Istanbul and will now be starting a cycle tour from Turkey through southeastern Europe to Germany. This will be a great time to learn about countries that we know nothing about.

We are both easy-going and love nature, running and cycling. We enjoy meeting new people and cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

"We are superheroes! What can happen?"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I use this great way to get to know people, when I'm travelling to various places! When I live somewhere with a bit more space again, I'm happy to welcome people on my couch!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had some great experiences as surfer - there are so many nice people out in this world!

Interests

I love travelling and experiencing different cultures, writing and playing all kinds of music, teaching children. I think I am quite easy-going and optimistic. I enjoy laughing a lot, having long breakfasts, learning languages, reading, watching slow films, running, hitchhiking.
