Hey,
I am passionate about people, stories and ideas - that's why for the last 10 years I've organised all sorts of events.
Organising events like TEDxHeidelberg gave me the opportunity to grow, learn with and from extraordinary personalities and start a journey guided by passion!
Probably the best way to describe myself is to call me a dreamer, who loves to leave his comfort zone to make his dreams come true.

Favorite quotes:
"Happiness is only real when shared" (Into the Wild)
"A single event can shape our lives or change the course of of history." - Deepak Chopra

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just love traveling, meeting new people and broaden my horizon. For me experiencing new cultures is about getting to know new people from around the globe.
The community here on Couchsurfing is just unique and very close to my heart - I already had so many amazing, spontaneous and enriching encounters, which I always want to keep as memories.

Interests

Probably my biggest interest is getting to know people, listen to their stories, hear what inspires them, experience what makes them unique and finally be inspired myself!
