About Me

I love to travel on a budget - it's the truest way to experience a country, city and, most importantly, culture. I consider myself to be an open-minded person who is always open to new experiences, tastes and friendships. My passport states I'm German but I don't feel that German at all. That's because I had the great opportunity to grow up in several countries throughout my life and therefore travelling and meeting new people is something ingrained that I can't (and don't want to) suppress.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As stated, I love budget travelling because it's the best way to get to know cultures and people. Couchsurfing is about so much more than having a free place to stay at.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Stayed up all night on a Halloween night, go up the mountain with some friends and watch sunrise over Sarajevo.
One of the most rewarding things I have done in my life!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to cook, so learning about the traditional food of any country I'm visiting is something I'm looking for. So if you know some recipes or even want to cook with me, that'd be great!

I can give you a crash-course in some Adobe products (photoshop, premiere, illustrator, ...), give you an introduction into German and Dutch.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you want to know anything about German politics, I'm your guy!
