--- No hosting because am travelling myself right now with my partner Freddy in Andalusia from January to March 2026. ---

I believe in a very strong force of life and love in this universe(s) and in everyone of us (like a huge common "conciousness"), that makes everything possible, "bad" and "good". I learn to let my healthy and healing connection to life form my reality (instead of fears and trauma), because I know, I am responsible for how I handle my own destiny. I am not waiting, complaining, hoping, longing for great things to happen - I make and let them just happen. That's why I live the life I've ever wanted - indeed without knowing before how it would look like. The "conventional" frame many people chose for their lifes is nothing I decline (it seems to offer security and it's the way we were socialised), but for me, much of this is a barricade I like to get over again and again. I found my fire, my niche, and soul mates are everywhere to find. It's amazing how much possibilities there are from the moment on you realize that the conventional habits are just ONE (very narrow) way to go. The only thing that's continual is the change. I learn how to let go and let in. Nothing happens without "reason", I believe that everything that happens is inter-connected, and when I listen, it's a hint for me - to stop, to enjoy, to learn, to think, to change, to grow. I question the world and my life every day, never stop searching, never stop being courageous to face problems or challenges (possibilities to learn and develop!) and being absolutely thankful for every second of this incredible life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing had a huge impact on my life. I am very very thankful for that. I love the idea behind it: just giving and taking in a big circle of wonderful people. I love it to trust people (when I feel I can) and to communicate open-minded. And I love it to support people who travel, because I think that travelling is one of the best things you can do in life (although I don't support it endlessly, because taking airplanes without thinking about it is nothing we should unconsciously just do to our planet, and I think being aware of the privilege to be able to travel at all - that most people on this planet unfortunately don't have - is also super important.)

I was deeply into CS from 2011 to about 2017, surfed by myself a lot in Southamerica and hosted tons of people with my ex flat mate. We hadn't much space in our appartement, but we both were so much into CS that finally we lived together in his room and my room was for the couchsurfers. :) It were amazing times.

I moved out of Cologne in 2018 then and live in a nice flat community in nature now, because I realized, now I need calmness and nature much more than concrete and many people. I still love Cologne, but I don't want to live there any more. I am - after some changes and Corona - opening up again for hosting and surfing right now, although I need it calmer now: 15 years of loud and wild city life in Cologne were awesome, but my life and my wishes changed. Most of the time, I really just appreciate the silence here in the nature and need less contact new people to feel fulfilled in my life. Plus, I had flat mates for a long time who were not up for Couchsurfing. Now that changed, we three are really open for having someone crashing our guest room now and then, so don't be shy!

Interests

following my inner call, participating in finding back to being a humble and connected mankind // my spiritual path // travelling (meanwhile inside more than outside) // broaden my horizon, never get lazy inside by believing or pretending that "I know" // exploring (myself) // loving (myself) // learning (whatever - about love, life, death, humans and myself, but also very practical things) // music/sound // reading // spending time with like-minded people (friends or new ones) // slowing down, feeling more, doing less

Music, Movies, and Books

I really love reading, it's not possible to list favorites, most stuff I read is spiritual/psychological/mindful/society-related.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Tons. Not possible to pick single ones. To be honest, every moment is a highlight (the fact alone that I made it to incarnation, wtf), even all those moments I am not conscious about that. Thankful and grateful for all the experiences which I was and am allowed to make. Pain, sadness, anger, rage included. And numbness included (classic in our traumatized society/mankind, and I feel that kind of often in those crazy structures we built for us, money on the top, disconnected from what life is - and we through it are - meant to be).

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to meet people I can talk about spirituality and life to, about the universe, fears, intuition, death, pain, love, about everything our brain will never understand, all the deep and essential stuff. I am no small talker (although small talk sometimes can be chill and important). A deep and honest talk can teach us a whole lot and just connect our hearts and souls. Good and open communication (often without words) is one of the keys in my life. Also on the meta level - honest communication about how we communicate and why, by the way - one of the most important topics for me. Trauma, society, privilege-conciousness, discrimination and all around that are also super important topics to me every day.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am very need orientated today, what I had to learn for many years: that it's okay to take my needs seriously, communicate them and go for them. What you get of me is honest communication, interest in your essential core and in what you need to feel safe with me, and curiosity about how we can make the time we share for both of us/all people included respectful and sweet.

I don't like polite-talks. Just because I'm hosting you or you're hosting me, I don't want any expectations involved in how much time we "should" spend together or whatever. It needs to feel right for all people included, then it's good. Could mean, hanging out 24/7 just because it clicked. Could mean, just saying "good morning", sharing a smile and not having much more contact, because there is no capacity, or everything is said by this smile anyway. Mostly its something in the spectrum in between.

I bring everything: Sometimes I kind of break open, then I love cooking and chatting, I am funny, I love it to make people laugh, I can be creative, I am all in into action, projects, organisation.
Very often, I prefer calmness, meditation, moving my body a bit, walking, maybe sitting together next to each other in silence and read a book, don't need much more, enjoy the silence and nature, maybe sharing a tee or coffee together, watching the sky. I do not need wild activities or adventures most of the time. The real adventure begins when you're allowing the silence.
