Here we go again,
been on and off couch surfing for a while now. So here we go with my fresh about me part.

While continuously creeping towards 30, I finished my Masters in Peace and Conflict Studies and now aim at that sweet spot between the end of quite extensive studies and the next job. I plan to use this time to get on my lovely 30 year old motorcycle and ride through south and south easter Europe.
Beside of practising my intellectual facial expression, I work on that darn motorcycle, do as much music as possible and just finished my last job as teacher for sex-ed in schools. Work and lived in other countries and finished my 6 months field research in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao.
So if you need stupid stories, I have been collecting them for a while.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Did not couch-surf too often but when I traveled or hosted it was always super fun. I met the guys that were my guests when I hosted the first time, last year again. After 6 years. Remembered the number, asked if they were still in the city they told me and that I travel through. It was awesome and I want to keep that alive.

Interests

So either I am analyzing some conflict (at the moment in west-africa), volunteer as trial observer for international crimes or state protection trials, organize a party with amazing musicians or work on the bike.

Even got a little video I did with a youtuber Bucketkris: https://youtu.be/I3adGyOURp0?t=171
(Always cool to show her some support)

And some music if someone is interested:

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been walking around on small philippine Islands, just flipping a coin whenever the road splitted. Traveling like this for more than a month. Just a tent, a lot of rice, tuna and no watch. Living timeless. And of course practicing my Hiligaynon. It was a good time.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Probably everything and nothing. I try not to burden anyone but if we wanna go on a deep dive into an obscure topic I am down. As a son of a psychologist und researcher of war crimes there are not a lot of topics left to be uncomfortable.
