About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I just want to enjoy life, do what I want to do, be happy, discover other cultures, peoples, countries! I just want to live, take the fullest, no attachments, be free

ABOUT ME

Well, what do I have to say. As all the couchsurfers traveling is my number one passion. I am interested in everything and willing to experience anything that is new. I love to be in the nature, work in the field, work with people (especially with children, being outdoor, music is a passion. I am a dreamer, but I also convinced I will fulfill them. I like to be surrounded by people and definitely by people from other cultures. I am an spontaneous, honest, open person who is willing to fight for humanity, equality and mother nature! I like everything that is new, adventures, wildcamping, remote islands, to act crazy and don't take things to serious.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think we have to connect more in this world, learn from each other and understand each other more. So we can fight prejudges & the hate and free the love. To take care for each other, be human for each other and share our happiness with each other, that is why we are human and that is why we are on mother earth.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies; just the not typical American movies. I like French/Italian movies a lot. and good documentaries about this planet, nature, human rights.

Music can be anything from Reggae till indie pop, techno, psytrance/goa . But no hard rock or metal and stuff like that. Favorite while traveling: Ben Howard, Asgeir, Keaton Henson, Angus & Julia Stone, Xavier Rudd, Bon Iver, Dotan, The war on drugs, Oscar & the Wolf, Nick Mulvey, Dire Straits and also many more. Always looking for new music, every day!
