About Me

Estoy en Colombia desde Junio, hice mi semestre de intercambio en Cali y voy a realizar una práctica en Bogotá a finales de Enero. Ahora estoy de viaje por Latinoamérica mientras tanto; me estoy quedando en Cartagena y pasaré por Bogotá para unos trámites de mi visa.

Cuida a los que amas, sin importar que hablen a tus espaldas. Vive bien tu vida y todo va a funcionar. Disfruta pero no pierdas de vista las metas que quieres lograr. Mientras aprendes a través de nuevas experiencias, menos sabes porque te diste cuenta que hay muchas cosas más por aprender y hasta ahora conoces muy poco.

Care for the ones you love. Don't Give a shit about people talkin behind your back. Do your things and focus on them. Party at times but not let partying control your life. Have a good time. Work for living and not live for working. Do what you do with your full heart or leave it. The more you know the less you know, because you are beginning to understand of how much more consists the world apart of the little your already know.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Estoy usando couchsurfing para conocer gente, nuevas culturas, hábitos, y comida en varias partes. Además estoy convencido de que puedes aprender algo de cada persona, y quiero compartir mis experiencias con las que encuentre en mí camino.

I'm on couchsurfing to know other people and their cultures. I love being around people, especially new people to broaden my horizon. A part of that, I love to try the typical food, which you don't find in the guide and its usually recommended by the locals. Also from nearly all the personas I have spent some time with I learnt at least one new piece of new music, art, information, culture and what is better if you stay over at a house and the host introduce you to his special drinks or food. That's why I'm here.

Interests

Mis intereses principales son viajar, todo tipo de música y la política global.

My main interests are travelling, getting to know other cultures and broaden my horizon. Learn about other approaches to live a life, and enjoy my stay here on earth. Apart of that I'm really in love with all kinds of music, from electronic to americana a lot apart of the commercial bullshit is worth hearing it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Caminar en la mañana por un desierto en el norte de Colombia para llegar al fin a una playa maravillosa es muy inspirador.

Walking in the morning through a desert in the northern part of Colombia to get at the end to a marvelous beach where you can enjouy nearly alone the beauty of nature was really inspiring.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share food with my hosts, can cook for them. Some german swear words you might need for your germany trip and the storys I’ve experienced during my travels.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Compartir comida, y algunas recetas mías con mis anfitriones sería muy agradable.

I am really willing to learn the thing you are willing to share with me, and also more than motivated to tell you about the stories I’ve experienced so far. I see my life and especially travelling as a constant learning process, so also my time at your house is part of this
