About Me

I'm a software developer by heart but also skilled in a lot of different crafts. I just really like tech and live for it.
Always struggling to make it symbiotic with my sense for climate and nature.

I work as a web developer for a small business that digitalizes companies workflows (we make excel but easier ^^)

I built my own van some years ago and still loving my mercedes 406D (got 50 years old in 2024) but also do motorcycle tours and a lot of other adventures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think travelling with couchsurfing just makes more sense due to meeting other interesting people.
Sadly a lot of people understandably turned away due to the involvement of mandatory payments on couchsurfing.

It was a flourishing plattform but now seams kind of dead, which is sad. i also have a trustroots profile now :)

Interests

I spend a lot of time for computer things like programming and developing some smart stuff for my home or some of my hobbies.
Mountainbiking and hiking in the summer and i like to go to any form Of water which includes the sea but I prefer non-salt water.
In winter the only sport I am doing is snowboarding with friends of mine.
In the past years I got a new interest: Cooking. I love it. I don't cook everyday but i already got some really nice tasty meals I cook regularly, maybe i have time to cook some for you?!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music... A long time I thought I like all music but boy was i wrong.

I am a electronic music lover for life probably. Nothing can beat a really good drum n bass drop.

Bungy Jumping from a huge bridge. (that was really awesome)
Hitchhiking from Austria to Ireland
Hitchhiking around iceland
Building my own van.
Motorcycle tour from austria to turkey

Teach, Learn, Share

Juggling, Unicycling, maybe even some tricks on the trampoline. The love for tech and microcontrollers?
I have a drone and am happy to shoot some nice things for you or with you. Can edit badly but maybe you can?
How to play several boardgames. I love boardgames.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Me being not complicated at all, I would describe myself as easy to host as it can get :)

But probably lots of people think that so nothing special about that.
I can cook something nice austrian (and will ofc buy the ingredients) and be nice and don't demand anything more than what you are ready to offer...

You dont have to clean after me! I am used to work in shared appartements so i know the rules.
