Heyhey,

My name is Bjarne, I'm 23 years old and a couchsurfer since 2019! 🥳🇫🇷🇬🇭🇪🇸🇦🇩🇨🇮

After a voluntary service in Togo 🇹🇬, I started studying Political Science in a french-german double-degree programm in Lille and Münster. Passionate about french-german friendship and an ever closer European Union, I started working in Paris as a parliamentary assistant.

Since 10 years I'm using my freetime for sailing. In this time I participated to 4 World Championship, 5 German Championship and won the state championship in lower-saxony. ⛵🏆💪

In my childhood I already traveled a lot with my parents and two brothers all around Germany and Western Europe. But since I discovered Couchsurfing I appreciate the idea of traveling by hitchhiking, meeting locals and getting to know new friends 🌍💚

If you are around my area and need a place to sleep or if you just want to get in touch, don't hesitate to write me.

Couchsurfing gives us a lot of possibilities, let's use them! ✊♥️😉

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I share the idea of a diverse and multicultural society. For intercultural comprehension we need communication and respect. In my eyes, Couchsurfing is a great platform which offers this possibilities.
