About Me

Mission: To meet interesting people

I used to love traveling alone, hitchhiking and couchsurfing (hosting and visiting). Meeting new and interesting people. Getting to know different ways of life and learn about things i didnt even knew existed. Then i got to busy with studying and working.
I think it has been at least 10 years ago that i last used couchsurfing, it brings back a lot of good memories. In many ways life has changed a lot. I now work as a medical doctor in Geriatrics. I'm married and we have 2 children. I still enjoy building things, gardening and i live in the same house again as 10 years ago.
I recently finished a small guest house in my yard and can host again.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people. To learn.
