CURRENT MISSION

Seeing as much of the world as possible.

ABOUT ME

Originally from Germany, I lived in Australia and California where I came to surf which is basically what I am doing in my free time (and when I am by the ocean...). I also enjoy hiking and try to visit a new place every weekend. I love good books and movies and food and enjoy exchanging recipes :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and talk about all the travel stories and adventures they went on. For me, couchsurfing is a great way of getting to know a different culture and so far I only had the best experiences hosting and being hosted.

Interests

I love beaches, swimming and camping, just being in the nature and seeing beautiful spots.
On the other side I like to get to know the culture of countries and meet new people.
I nearly do every kind of sports swimming, hiking, snowboarding, surfing, horseback riding and rock climbing. Recently I also got into freediving which is slowly but steady developing into my new passion-so if there is a lake, ocean, river, let's go explore!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking down and up to the Colorado River from the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. It was the most strenuous but also most rewarding experience I ever had.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a quiet decent chef and (probably not so decent compared to you) chess player, so lets have some nice food and a good game of chess :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a very laid back person and would love to share food and stories over a glass of good wine/ tea.
