About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Working and Travelling the World

ABOUT ME

Straight forward, open for everything, easy-going, love to speak foreign languages

PHILOSOPHY

When one door closes another door opens; but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us.
___________________Alexander Graham Bell_____
Long story short: If something goes wrong, just don't give a shit as you can't change it anyway.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Karlsruhe is not really a touristic german sight, but it is a very nice and familiar city, I love living there. Every year, we have on of (or even THE) biggest free Open Air Festival in Germany with more than a hundred thousand visitors on one weekend. This is usually the peak time for my couch, though I have not been in Germany lately to attend this event and to give my couch away. Sorry for that :(

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Gathered some experience in Los Angeles and was supposed to gather some more in Mexico ;) Had a Couchsurfer Girl from NY at my place in Karlsruhe
