About Me

My friends say that I'm happy, open-mindet, very spontaneous, a bit hyperactive and uncomplicated (except when I'm hungry).
I love cycling, snowboarding and being outdoor in general. I was born in the swiss alps in a small village called Vna where i grew up learning to ski almost before i could walk and then moved to Switzerland's largest city, Zürich. I live here since 6 years and know where you can get (cheap) beer or share a glas o wine with a stunning view before going to a trendy electro club or a chilled bar.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Everybody should have the opportunity to travel, this is my contribution a free place to sleep. I'm happy to hear your story and get inspired therefore i'll do my best to be a good host and to also share some time with you if possible.

Interests

As already written i really like snowboarding, cycling, climbing, hiking and being outdoor during summer and winter. There is nothing better than grab a cold beer with some friends after you had a nice trip in the mountains. You can have an adventure everywhere the secret is just do it.

Music, Movies, and Books

I can show you the music (mostly hiphop but recently also indie and lots of other generes) i like and share with you the books i've already red. Books like the millennium trilogy or the Da Vinci Code.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- Cycle from Zürich all the way down to Malaga, with only a tend and cooking gear. It took approximately 2 months.
- Hitchhike trough France and experience french hospitality at its top (also without any language skillz).

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach some Snowboarding and share my knowledge about some nice hikes during sommer or winter. I can tell you what you should carry with you on a two moths bicycle tour and what you will or wont need for wild camping.
Currently I try to learn guitar (quite in early stages, so you don't want to hear that).

I can share my favorite spots in and around Zurich and have a good time.
