Hi there, I’m Felix, 26 years old and from Germany. I’ve been traveling in Australia for about six months now and drove by now more than 8,000km with my van. Along this journey I’ve met awesome people from all over the world, had fun (and sometimes dodgy) adventures in nature and learned many important life lessons. But what I haven’t done so far is Couchsurfing. I’ve heard many good things about it from other people so I thought I give it a shot now. I’m always looking for new interesting experiences and meeting people from different walks of life. I love to listen to a good story and learning something new about life, and I think Couchsurfing might be a great way to do exactly that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

„Life is absurd. From the moment we are born we approach death.“ So we might as well fill the time we have with as many meaningful experiences as possible. Meeting people from all around the world with different stories makes my life richer and happier.

Interests

Anything outdoors: hiking, camping, fishing, sailing (although rather inexperienced so far), want to get back into surfing (haven’t done it in a while)

Music, Movies, and Books

Hobbit, Lord of the Rings, Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy (the whole five part trilogy), I mostly read non-fiction and try to learn a little bit about a lot of things (mainly because I’m looking for the question with the answer 42)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One awesome thing: I hiked across the alps in six days from Germany through Austria to Italy
One not so awesome thing: I tried to catch a solar panel with my face and failed miserably
