ABOUT ME

Most important thing to know about me: I grew up in a winery! Thus I can farm and know a lot about wine, really a lot.

PHILOSOPHY

I love to share and learn. It is a real win-win.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My businesses send me all over the globe. What a wonderful chance. Yet, I do not like to be a tourist. I love to learn about people, their perspective on the world and their art of living.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've started off with SERVAS (www.Servas.org) in the late 1980s. It was a kind of paper and pencil CouchSurfing. This brought me around Europe, Africa, Japan, China, the Gulf and the US. Now I am going web 2.0
