About Me

Time is the most important good, you just have a certain time on this planet, a certain time you are healthy, a certain time you are young, no money can buy you back a minute of time... so spend it with people and on things you love

Current mission :
Get to marrocco on my own/alone just by feet and hitchhiking, crossing France and Spain 😁

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting people is the essence of a travel, making friends the essence of life... cs is offering a really strong community with, as far as my expierience goes, openminded people that share roughly the same view on the world, share and love

Ive never had a place on my own and spended a huge part of my adult life living in hostels, where you surely can meet nice people as well, but none with a connection to the place they visit. Thats why i love couchsurfing, you cant compare this expierience, its far more interessting and personal, as seeing how someone lives in his place is more exciting than visiting a hostel thats made to be appealing in a certain way.

Interests

Iam more into creative stuff, started drawing and painting as a teen and now really focus on spending time with that passion. Still i do enjoy goin cycling, wandering or just go outside and play some soccer. Nearly any activity in water will do as well 😀 i like to read both fictional and non-fictional and enjoy having conversation that goes a little deeper than the new haircut of some celeb, but at the same time can also just monkey and goof around talkin bullsh*t 😀 music is of all what iam most interested in, i know everyone loves music, but iam addicted to it, listen to new stuff, go dancin or do some on your own (far from any professional). Last but not least obviously i like to travel and meet new people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I would say that one of the most intense experience i had so far was spending a voluntary week in Bosnia-Herzegowina, when i was only 16.the country had to face a terrible war in 1992. Over there, my "job" was to rebuilt an elementary school, which carried a lot of increidible moments with it, as I really got into touch with the inhabitants and their faith and playing soccer with the school children (almost the only activity they had). I have been to poor countries and on the other site lived in zurich and i feel that the less people have the more they share and come together, and when i add my brazil experience, they seem happier.

I think in total the best experience is that i learned that happiness has nothing to do with money and that one should value time and the relationship to people sorrounding you far more than a majority in our civilisation do 😀
