About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To boldly go where no Benedikt has gone before. ;-)

ABOUT ME

Lots of incarnations: entrepreneur, Historian/political scientist, banker, consultant with nearly boundless curiosity. Lived across the world (Europe, US, Latin America, Sub-Saharan Africa), widely travelled, thoughtful and knowledge-devouring, outgoing, fun-loving, trying to taken the road less travelled - I love to meet interesting persons with an open mind and transforming travel into something that is more about a meeting of minds than just looking at sights. Which by no means precludes having fun. :)
Anything else, we'll leave for personal exploration.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Trying to be an excellent host, help visitors have a great time, and spread the word about this exciting and fun way of travelling the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far only excellent ones (with Hospitality Club in Florianopolis/Brasil, Kyiv and Odessa/Ukraine, and all along the Transsiberian Railway) Few couches, though, until now: Rather than about accomodation per se, I care about the great benefit of getting to know a city via nice, exiting and enterprising people who live there.

Interests

Friends, Travels, Literature, Politics, Philosophy, History, Cinema, Languages, Music (for Dancing: Electronic/House ), Dining/Cooking My Sports: competitive talking (most frequent one), others: alpine skiing, hiking, swimming
