Hello! I'm Dominik, 25 years old and a student of urban planning. I’m living in Cologne, Germany in a single-room-apartment. I like cooking, snorkeling and warm weather. Also I love to explore cities and its architecture as well as their local food culture.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

With Couchsurfing I want to try a new way to travel and explore a city more authentic. Furthermore I would like to improve my english skills. :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all Pixar movies, especially "up", "toy story" and "finding nemo". Unfortunately I‘m too lazy for reading novels.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2016 I‘ve travelled on my own to Paris and Rotterdam because my best friend was ill in the summer holidays, whereupon I noticed that backpacking is my thing and so I did some trips after high school through Asia and America on my own. Furthermore I did an internship in Tokyo last autumn and fell in love with Japans society and culture.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cultural exchange is so important and interesting! I live in Cologne since the age of 17, so I know almost every corner in the city. I have a IKEA couch to sleep on. My neighbourhood is called Agnesviertel, which is in north of the city center. You can reach within a 20 minutes-walk the main station and the Cologne Cathedral.
