About Me

A couchsurfing virgin who wants to take his first steps to be a part of this lovely community. I'm an open-minded, relaxed and flexible guy, who enjoys a crazy night out but also a chill, cozy night at home (leaning more and more to the latter when I'm now closer to 30 than 20). My biggest passion in life is sport and I've always been active in some way and at the moment it's beach volleyball that takes up a fair part of my free time. Also enjoy outdoor life, good food, listening to other people's stories and advices. I love to learn and experience new things whether it's skydiving, a new language or making crocks.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new, interesting people and experience new cultures. When I travel I prefer to get to know the real country or city and not the touristic part. Then couchsurfing is a prefect tool to get advices and from locals. As a host I'd like to share my hidden secret spots of the city I'm living in.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Two friends of mine and I took a flight to the very north of Sweden and lived only of what mother nature provided us. Sleeping under trees every night and with lichen and berries as our main source of food I survived in the wild for 25 days. The last three days I spent on my own since my friends had to give up due their bodies couldn't handle the hunger anymore. With snow and lemmlings ruining my food I also had to throw in the towel. 16 kg lighter and with an experience I'll remember all my life.
