ABOUT ME

Easy going, interested in meeting new people and get to know them. Currently planning our backpacking trip to south east asia. We´ll be away from home from February 2016 and don´t know yet when we are back in Germany.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We did host a lot of people with hospitalityclub in the past and just love to meet new people, learn about other countries or points of view.
Since we will be travvling to south east asia this year (and probably for some time in the next year(s) as well, couchsurfing is just the perfect place to get to know people wherever we are.

Interests

I´m a freelance photographer, living with my wife Maike in Varel (between Wilhelmshaven and Oldenburg) for some time now. We´ve lived in Spain and Ireland for some years, meeting so many nice people through Hospitalityclub and AirBnB.
Besides meeting new people, our interests include reading, playing poker, enjoying good food and just hanging out with new and old friends from all over the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The thing with something amazing is, that it´s not that amazing anymore once you´ve done it. But living in Spain and Ireland for some years really changed our understanding of where our home is. Maybe that is why we seem to enjoy living in new places and move from one city to another once a year...?

What I Can Share with Hosts

Just treat your guests as if you´ve known them for all your life. We´ve never had any bad experiences this way, and we always made new friends along the way. Be open, be honest, be yourself!
