Living in Hamburg for almost 5 years now. Originally I'm from the very west of Germany, right next to the dutch border.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it's a wonderful way to travel because you only get a real idea of the place you're visiting when meeting and/or staying with locals. And it's for free! I think it's an amazingly wonderful thing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen a halo, which looks like a circular 'rainbow' around the sun. That was wild.
