About Me

I am a wannabe sailer, I have already travelled the world for three years through the world shoreline for three years and now dream to become a boat captain. Planning it all with hard work and strategy to grow and turn my dreams into reality someday soon.
My english has an american twist.
The red hair makes people think I’m Irish.
I live in Spain but I’m a native German.
The contrary works best for me - patience vs stress.
Thinking at night and things done during the day
Common sense + problem-solver is key in my field.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a unique platform to continue see the world and meet new people when you are traveling.

Among many other things a couch is similar to a cabin on a boat small but enough space to strech out... I sailed 3 years around the world which taught me that for every problem there is a solution” Having lived in many countries makes you see things with different eyes and perspectives.
