PHILOSOPHY

The cure for boredom is curiosity.
There is no cure for curiosity

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Like everyone else here I like to share my time and space. I like to hear stories and i like to tell them. (unfortunately I moved, so I can not share my space anymore :( )

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed at three places: In Berlin, Portimao and Lagos. Those were wonderful experiences. I learned more about the history, culture and food of the places then I could've learned by myself.

I shared my space twice: To a lovely couple from Leipzig and my host from Portimao! It was really cool to give back and show them around town. Pass on my knowledge :)
