My current mission is to travel the world and make new friends along the way. I was a cubicle worker for quite a while - so now I swung into the other extreme and most of my days are spent outside of germany travelling for work (and pleasure),

I love travelling, working on the road and experiencing live as it is. I love trying out foreign local food - workout at local gyms - run in local running events - do karaoke and just meet people and have fun doing what ever it is they are doing anyway ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I stumbled across couchsurfing while I was backpacking with a friend through ireland in 2009.
We were staying at a lot of youth hostels along the way, and I heard about couchsurfing a few times.
That's when I joined the site and started to host people in Germany - since then it's my most used ressource when travelling to meet poeple abroad and to find events and stuff to do.

I met my best friend on CS and had so many good times travelling and surfing - it's amazing.

Interests

I am an active Toastmaster - doing public speaking events around the globe.
I play basketball - more streetball than tactical game.
I love working out in the gym, either for myself or with my buddies and challenge each other.
I love running, either for competition or for sightseeing.
I enjoy riding motorbike.
I sing karaoke a lot, especially in asia because it's so crazy there.
I am crazy for electric mobility and tesla in particular, I do have an electric car, even though I do not drive a lot as I am abroad most of the time.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like reading autobiographies, how other people spent their time.
I listen to HipHop or Electronic music most of the time - but I've gotten lazy, most of my playlists on spotify are managed by friends and I tell them when I miss something ;P
I have a few favorite movies in Amazon Prime, but don't use the TV for something else.
My rule is to watch a local movie (with english subtitles) in every country possible - I learned a lot about culture this way ( In germany you are not allowed to order food in the cinema like in USA or SE Asia, and you don't stand up and praise the king for 2 Minutes like in Thailand).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

hitchhiking through Ireland in 2009 was awesome and it also was how I heard about CouchSurfing - so many good stuff happened till then ....
