About Me

Hello there!
My name is Flurin.
I'm an artist :) my website: www.fluboss.art.
Besides art, my other passion is travelling! Sometimes I'm a backpack-traveller, other times I do a lot of hiking/camping trips, explore the beautiful landscapes around our world and meet a lot of new people! I want to see as much of the world as possible. But I'm convinced that it is not worth visiting a place, if you don't get to know local people, their culture, food, history and perspectives. I draw a lot while travelling and always carry my ipad and sketchbook with me.

I'm open minded, very tolerant and flexible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because it's the easiest way to get to know the local people of a place you've never been to and don't know anyone from. As couchsurfing is about cultural exchange you learn about a lot of different ideas and perspectives. Couchsurfing in general helps therefore in connecting the world and to help us understand each other better.

- I've worked on a farm in the Swiss Alps and helped building a water trough for the cows :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to talk about cultures, politics, religion, traveling experiences and different perspectives in general.
Additionally I could give some drawing/painting-tipps, because I do quite a lot of that ;) I usely always provide my host with a personal drawing as a return for letting me sleep at their place and inviting me.
And I could teach you some german.
