Overview
About Me
I love travelling and meeting interesting people from all over the world. I'm always happy when I do have the chance to teach someone anything I know about and I'm interested in.
My roots lie in the wonderful village Tegernheim, very close to Regensburg where I spent my childhood, studied renewable energy engineering and am a member of local associations like firefighters and brass band (I play clarinet). I love this place with its narrow streets, the river Donau, the little chains of hills with forests around...
From 2017-2018 I have been living most of the time in the region of Stuttgart where I have worked for Mercedes Benz in the development of an electric car. Furthermore I have studied Business Engineering in Berlin, where I have gone every few months for seminars. Within this dual study program I've made wonderful experiences which I would be happy to share with you. End of November of 2018 I finished with my master studies and I decided to take some time for myself, getting to know new people and new places whilst traveling around the world. This was when I discovered Couchsurfing. I used the platform on my one-year backpacking, hitchhiking and sailing trip throughout Mexico and the U.S.A.
In July of 2020 I moved to Landsberg am Lech where I started a new job as a Coach for Energy Efficieny. I am happy to welcome you here as my guest! :)

Me encanta viajar y conocer gente interesante de todo el mundo. Siempre estoy feliz cuando tengo la oportunidad de enseñar a alguien algo que conozco y en lo que estoy interesado. Soy más bien una persona introvertida. Esto no significa que sea tímido. Simplemente no quiero ponerme en el centro, sino más bien mantener el oído abierto a otras personas.
Mis raíces se encuentran en el maravilloso pueblo de Tegernheim, muy cerca de Ratisbona, donde pasé mi infancia, estudié ingeniería en energías renovables y soy miembro de asociaciones locales como bomberos y banda de música (toco el clarinete). Me encanta este lugar con sus calles estrechas, el río Danubio, las pequeñas cerros con bosques en los alrededores....
Desde 2017-2018 vivía en la región de Stuttgart donde trabajaba para Mercedes-Benz en el desarrollo de un coche eléctrico. A finales de 2018 terminé mis estudios de maestría y decidí tomarme un tiempo para mí mismo, conociendo gente y lugares nuevos viajando por el mundo. Fue entonces cuando descubrí Couchsurfing. Utilicé la plataforma en mi viaje de mochila, autostop y vela de un año por México y los EE.UU.
En julio de 2020 me mudé a Landsberg am Lech donde comencé un nuevo trabajo como entrenador de eficiencia energética. Estoy feliz de darles la bienvenida aquí como mi invitado! :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
My friend David told me about his experiences with CS so I decided to give it a try as well and so I registered in Nov. 2018. In 2019 I used CS travelling in Mexico and the US for almost one entire year. I do not only use CS as a cheap way of traveling but also getting to know to amazing people and making new friends with sustaining relationships. Now that I'm back in Germany I am glad to welcome international visitors here as well. My home is Your home!

Mi amigo David me contó sus experiencias con el CS, así que decidí intentarlo también y me inscribí en noviembre de 2018. En 2019 usé CS viajando por México y los Estados Unidos durante casi un año entero. No sólo uso CS como una forma barata de viajar, sino también para conocer a personas increíbles y hacer nuevos amigos con relaciones duraderas. Ahora que estoy de vuelta en Alemania, me complace dar la bienvenida a los visitantes internacionales. Mi casa es su casa!
