CURRENT MISSION

Find a humanistic way of living

ABOUT ME

I suppose I am a quite adventureous and open person always in search for something new. That´s maybe the reason why I quit my job and flat in Germany and went travelling East Africa. However not few might say I am restless and always on the run (which is probably also true).

After Africa I went to South America discovering another great place. Currently I have temporarily settled down in Austria in a beautiful mountain village, looking for and finding out what is coming up next - enjoying the mountains, travelling in Europe making experiences.

I enjoy meeting people from all over the world, getting to know their points of view, opinons and ways of living. Friendship and family are very important to me. I think I am a quite contemplative person but I hope one can still find a certain bit of humor in my personality

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

During my travels I used to surf a lot. Currently when I am at my place everyone is welcome.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda and Tansania I made many interesting couchsufing experiences. And I must say - all positive. From staying in a Masaai Village to getting to know expat lives to staying with the people in the metropoles - each experience was unique and I always met extremely friendly and outgoing people. The same counts for South America where I found some true friends and most interesting people.
