Informazioni generali
Chi sono
Hitchhiker. Cyclist. Writer.
⚠️Since 01/25 I stay with my Chinese gf in Shenzhen, China. We rent a rather small place and live quiet minimalistic. We just changed our apartment recently and all our belongings did fit in 2 bags per person. Please don't expect a fancy place. If you don't expect a Spa-Resort you're more than welcome in our humble home.⚠️

About me:
I travel since I'm 19 but for me traveling only got out of scale since 2022. This is when i graduated from university and finally accepted that this recent life i've got is reserved for traveling. Maybe I change in the future but I am just to much in love with the road to work 9-5 or do other things, that keep me away from the road for a long time.
I just successfully finished a bicycle trip from germany to Capetown, south africa. When I arrived in Capetown I made a really strong connection with a chinese girl and now I am living with her in Shenzhen, China. Only the Ghost of Mao knows how many times I can re-enter China via Visa-Run. Every 30 days I have to leave the country in order to get new 30days granted.
I do few travels here in China. Mostly i stay in Shenzhen and explore the surrounding area. My main mission in China is to write my second book about my time in Africa. My first book you can check out here:

So far I used CS mostly for being a guest. At the moment i have a more or less stable home so finally I can pay a little bit hospitality back and host other people. I'm pretty flexible so we can explore together, there are still quiet a few places in Shenzhen where I wanna go.
Here are some newspaper articles about my previous journeys:

Musica, film e libri
Music really depends on the mood. every mood let enjoy me another kind of music. In fact every genre has its treasures and its bullshit. As long as it's produces with passion I'll like it
As I wrote, i Love all Kind of books. Tell me a title of a good book and I'll probably read it.
Next to classical authors Like Franz Kafka one Guy changed my opinion about what a good book have to be Like: Gregory David Roberts "Shantaram" changed Not only my opinion of modern literature, it even changed my View of Life in some aspects. It is a wonderful Story about Love, friendship, adventure, Philosophy, self-discovery, self-contempt, different cultures etc. Read it. You'll Love it!
