About Me

Cheerful, adventurous, spontaneous, open-minded guy who tries to make the best out of every day :)

I´m interested in almost every topic and open to have a conversation about everything but my heart beats for science and sports. I love to do activities in nature as camping, hiking, mountaineering, climbing and diving.

For me it´s always a pleasure to meet new people and to learn new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In my opinion the best way to get to know a culture is not by just reading about it but by traveling and experiencing daily life with locals. For this reason couchsurfing is a great opportunity to connect people and cultures.
