Overview
About Me
Just moved to Munich and like to meet travellers ;)
----------------------------------
THAT WAS LAST YEAR ;)))
I quit my job for the German Bundesliga in the live TV production area and travel now for one year through South America to learn about the Latin way of life and to make new friends!
I started in Panama and sailed with a boat to Colombia. Then I headed South and visited Ecuador (+Galapagos), Peru, Chile, Patagonia (Chile + Argentina) till I arrived in Ushuaia. From there I went North again through Chile and did a jeep tour through the Salar de Uyuni. From Bolivia I visited Peru again to see Machu Picchu - then headed back to La Paz. I am in Bolivia right now and going to Argentina again and going to reach Buenos Aires in around 2 weeks. From there I will go to Uruguay, Paraguay and final Brazil where I will enjoy the Olympic Games and a loooooot of amazing beaches before returning home to Germany in October.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To meet the real people of the country I am visiting and not only other travelers in hostels and to get a real impression of living in the countries where I am traveling...
I really need to improve my Spanish more so thats why I would like to spend the next months on private couches and speak a lot of Spanish!!!
Interests
As you might guess I love traveling and be on the road every free minute where I don't have to work and meet people from other countries. Besides that I am a Cinephile and really into film and critical acclaimed TV shows (Sopranos, Mad Men, Breaking Bad, True Detective, etc.). The cinema is my favorite place when I am not traveling but is similar to it because it magical can set you also in a different world and always gives you a new experience.
At home I like cooking and doing sports (football, tennis, jogging) to relax after work.
I like talking about the meaning of life and how we could improve living on this planet together peacefully.
