ABOUT ME

I like a lot of sports especially snowboarding and surfing. I am a passionate sportive guy an I'm usually up for any adventure. I love spending time in nature.
I like meeting lots of people and make experiences together. I really love travelling around, as it more and more shows me how different people in the world are and at the same time I get to know myself.

I study meteorology which meets my interest in the laws of nature. I really like discovering meteorology, and I hope to be able to give sth. back to mother earth by sharing this knowledge.

While I can be very thoughtful and spiritual I usually like talking bullshit and I usually try to make people around me feeling comfortable and happy.

PHILOSOPHY

I like the hawaiian Huna philosophy. Their 7 basic principles are:
1. The World Is What You Think It Is.
2. There are no limits.
3. Energy Flows Where Attention Goes.
4. Now Is The Moment Of Power.
5. To Love Is To Be Happy With (someone or something).
6. All Power Comes From Within.
7. Effectiveness Is The Measure Of Truth.

I also like buddhistic ideas and lifestyle.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am mostly surfing couches right now as I have only one room. With an own living room in my flat, I will be happy to invite couch surfers again.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed and hosted about 5-10 couches so far, always was like a blind date very exciting. Like having a blind date... Most of the time it was great fun and just once it was a little weird, as my host hardly talked to me :)
