I am a man in search of meaning. Asking questions to myself and others is a huge pleasure to me. While life flows along, I try to be awake and experience it to it's fullest. In that sense, I am a spiritual person and very fond of philosophy, joyful exploration and human connection.

Born and raised primarily in Germany. We lived in Egypt for a year and in Qatar for 18 months. I finished school in Berlin 2012. Since then I'm exploring, how I want to live my life. I studied Psychology for a while and now focus more on Philosophy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet people from around the world and connect. It is such a beautiful feeling and I want to share it. Let's exchange, inspire and enjoy our time :)

Deeply impressive was my time in India and Nepal. I have never met such generous people before. It inspired me that my hosts took delight in my joy and I hope to pass this blessing on to others.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music that moves my heart. Movie soundtracks do that and vocal singing when I hear a human being singing their emotions.

Movies? Same story 😃 I also enjoy good storytelling, strong dialogues, inspiring ideas, many many things.

I've read fantasy when I was a child. Then a phase of self-help psychology books. That was when I lost the joy in reading 😃
Today it's spiritual books.
Hermann Hesse: Demian, Siddhartha
Paulo Coelho: Zahir, Alchemist, Aleph
Power of now, I am that, Dying to be me, Your souls plan, Krishnamurti
I ended up in self-inquiry. No place I'd rather be.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Three major fears I have faced.
It took me a lot of courage, but the feeling once I faced it was invaluable.

If amazing can be understood as surprising, that's me. I don't like to fulfill people's expectations. It's like a cage. So I don't.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to share my experiences. And the best way I learn is through others experiences and my own. So I love to share my time and compassion in a good conversation. The biggest gift for me is you. Your story and your presence :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Connection. I am genuinely interested! We can talk, laugh, cook and sing together. I can share a good silence too.
