About Me

Hello, I am a joyful optimist and I realized that I really enjoy being outdoor. I really enjoy spending time in nature, hiking, camping and sit by a campfire.
I question a lot in my life and try always to make the best of my moment.

I worked a lot, I also enjoyed it for a long time, I'm good at what I do, but I know from the beginning on that I don't want to do the same all my life.
I noticed that I was never so free and felt that I wanted to discover more, so the idea came up to travel and I've been traveling since March 30th 2022.
And it's great!!

I hiked and hitchhiked in the US, traveled around in Mexico and had a wonderful workaway place, also enjoyed time in Guatemala and Costa Rica over the winter i made a break at home it was good to see family and frends again and explored my home country further.

Now it's time to travel to find out what I'm going to do in my life and in my future, that's why I go out and look for more inspiration.
I have learned on past journeys that I can trust my inner guides
I appreciate the most when I can connect with locals, share story's and spend a good time together. I like to cook and happy with simple things :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because its such a wonderful idea! And some of my best travel experiences are with couchsurfing travelers.
And I like both side being a host to bring the travel spirit into my daily life or when i have the pleasure to have host in another country.
Specially the culture exchange, sharing life skills and knowledge or a simple good time together.
Possibilities like this opens my heart and gave me lots of hope :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The honor to met all this good hearded people along the way. How shared there home with me, a dinner we prepaired together, how picked me up and given me a lift or a good chat.
Always made the best out of the time, we had together.
With these memories, so different the all are, I´m a gifted man!!
It showed me that in each country i traveled there are alot of wonderful people how wishes a stranger the best and the stranger often became a frend!
Thank you may the good spirits are with you!

I like to cook and am happy when we cook together or you show me what your favorite food is. Only thing is I don't eat meat, but I promise my food is always tasty

In one way or another its always a give and get, so when there are things to do in the House or around I like to help!! :) I´m a crafter and skilled ;)
