Hi Everyone

I'm a solo gay traveler working online and exploring the world. I like to take my time in each country and get to know the culture more in-depth. If my life were a book, it would be full of so many different characters, protagonists and antagonists aplenty with each new chapter.
I love to hear the stories of others. Their opinions and beliefs intrigue me.
I've come to realize that I can find some common ground with everyone I meet and relate to each other this way.

I particularly enjoy meeting people who make me question my thoughts and opinions and I am happy to engage with people who differ in opinion to me as long as it remains respectful.

I love excersize and being active. Calisthenics, Squash (raquetball) and just recently started jumprope.
My favourite things are to wander the streets of a new city and get lost or to hike to the highest point to get a birds-eye view of an area.

I am a commercial diver which is basically a construction worker but underwater. I have dived commercially more times than I can count however my recreational dives are less than 40. I studied accoujnting and worked in insolvency for the first half of my 20's.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I have been a Couchsurfing member for a few years however, I never had the opportunity to actually try.
I was hoping to make new friends and create new memories in a way that's different from organized tours or hostels.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I find there is always a perfect time for the right music. Some moments call for light jazz, some moments call for UK Grime while others call for pop. I find pop to be more enjoyable with others because usually people know the songs and they are easy to sing along with together.

Recommend me a good self-help book and I'm usually all over it..... In audiobook form of course.

I find myself re-watching movies over and over. And struggle to watch a new movie or start a new series when I'm alone. However, I find myself more adventurous with movies when I am with others. Love a good horror, comedy or animation. Recommend me a good anime and I will binge watch.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

While working as a commercial diver on Salmon farm in Stewart Island, New Zealand (at the very south of the country, near Antarctica). I was repairing the nets that extend 30 meters deep and as I lay on the bottom of the net I see a dark shadow ascending towards me from the deep. As the dark mass gets bigger and bigger, I begin to see a nose, two eyes and eventually a thousand sharp white teeth. I quickly swan as high as I could and as fast as I safely could to watch a Great White Sharks mouth hit the net where I recently laid. His huge figure push the net up towards me and his jaw clamp shut, ripped and massive hole in the net and swam away.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Sounds kinda lame, but I can help with finances and business restructuring haha. Having worked as an insolvency accountant made me a little less scared of numbers and money.

I also dive for a living so can give pointers and share stories about that.
