About Me

CURRENT MISSION:
Travel the world in search of random adventure and meeting great people along the way! Help others to enjoy off-the-path & locally sourced travel recommendations :)

ABOUT ME:
I'm a German-Canadian guy living in Berlin for the last 4 years. Lover of all things...travel, music, food, photography, art, and history. I've lived in South America, USA, Canada, and Germany. I'm currently converting a van into a camper to give me freedom to explore more often!

Music is a huge huge part of my life. I played in a touring band, produce music, used to work in the music industry, and go to a lot of concerts. I enjoy riding my bike, going to the beach, reading in the park, watching docs, and building start-ups. I'm a bit of an old soul, and appreciate life's simple pleasures. I love ice hockey, and am a passionate Liverpool FC supporter!

I like meeting locals and learning what it's really like to live where they do... learning about what motivates people to travel... our differences and similarities, etc. I'm always respectful to and with my CouchSurf friends, and extremely thankful to everyone I meet whilst Couchsurfing. And if you can teach me Spanish, I'll help teach you English or Germany :)
Happy travels!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've had some of the best times of my life CouchSurfing, so I think it's important to continue building more experiences. Locals are your best guides...plus they usually turn into amazing new friends! I've truly been blessed by the people I've met and made some great friends along the way!
