About Me

Life long travel addict. Spent most of my free time traveling, discovering new places, meeting new cultures and beautiful people. In 2018 I decided to become a full time Nomad, quit my 9-5 job, my apartment and sold everything that didn't fit in my backpack. Since then I lived and traveled mostly in south-east Asia while working remotely.

In general I am pretty easy going and very open minded. Love hanging out with people but also enjoy alone time. Most comfortable in nature, mountains or close to water.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

"Sharing is caring" is one of my mantras. I enjoy meeting new people and having interesting conversations. Especially flowing unexpectedly into amazing situations by being open for sth new is sth that excited and drives me.

Interests

I'm highly interested in human evolution and the elevation of the collective consciousness as well as tools that can help us to do so, such as creative technology like blockchain / crypto and sustainable solutions against pollution.

I'm trying to be as conscious as possible as a human being through self awareness and by being respectful with my environment and Mother Nature.

I practice some movement, yoga, meditation and breathwork. I love ice baths or at least cold showers. But I also enjoy a drink or a solid party once a while.
