We are a 50+ year old couple, young at heart, open minded, and very interested in contacting people from whereever ... We like to travel as backpackers and we more like to see the everyday's life than touristic hotspots ...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In June 2015 we had our first couchsurfing experiences - travelling in Iran we met a few intersting people this way - and now - in July 2015 we did host our first guests. So you see: we are still new here ...

WHY?

Because we want to show guests the beauty of our city and our country. We want to return some of the hospitality we have seen abroad. And we want to have nice, interesting contacts in other countries - and sometimes we need a couch and a shower too. ;)
