About Me

I'd say travelling is one of my purposes in life. There are so many beautiful places worth seeing all over the world. One of my big fives for life is visiting every region of the world. Every spot offers its own beauty. The next places I'd wish to go are Norway to see the Northern lights, Nepal or Tibet and the Philipines.

Furthermore, I'm doing sports for fitness and fun. I play badminton, practise yoga and Jumping Fitness as well as other gym classes. Since I like being in nature I enjoy hiking and skiing. Other activities I practice in my freetime are cooking (vegetarian food), reading bookings and learning chinese. I'm active in the foodsharing eV. which is a association for fighting food waste as well as in a university association for business consultancy.

I'd describe myself as a very open-minded and easy-going person. I'm always trying to learn or experience something new since I'm that kind of person who needs diversity and sense in life. If someone asks me where I see myself in 10 years it's definetly not in a small suburn area of a boring city, working 8 to 5 every day and having the same weekend 50 weekends a year exept the two weeks summer holidays.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There are many reasons for travelling. For me travelling is not only the part where I go to a country lay down at the beach for to weeks relax and that's it. I want to experience the culture, the food, the traditions and so on. I want to widen my horizons by hearing about the stories and experiences people can tell. In my opinion talking to people from all over the world makes the world to a better place. When trying to understand what people from other countries value in life, what their key drivers in life are, what makes them happy, what makes them worring and so on. If we respect what is important to others we can move clother together.
Additionally I also enjoy to share my experiences and listening to the experiences of others.
Oh I should not forget to tell you that I love cooking, learning to cook new dished and eating all kinds of food as long as it is vegetarian.

Couchsuring also offers not only a great opportunity to meet locals and people from all over the world but also a very interesting and easy going place to sleep. I'm on the one hand happy to profit from other but on the other hand I want to give others the same opportunity.
It's defenitely a way making traveling easier and more exciting.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
