About Me

I am a nature and peaceful places -loving sports enthusiast being glad to have met many truly wonderful people throughout my travels <3

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I registered for CS because of three reasons: First of all because I have been reading "Couchsurfing in Iran" and "Couchsurfing in China" by Stephan Orth and he made me curious about the platform and the hosts, who are running this awesome and hospitable community. Secondly I have already had a lot of good experiences with airbnb hosts (probably stayed with more "original" airbnb hosts than with those who are monetizing it more severely) and thirdly I honestly think that through affordable travels people, who otherwise would not even have the slightest chance of meeting each other, can actually meet, exchange their cultural beliefs, exchange different views on certain topics, can laugh and have fun together instead of staying in boring hotel rooms and only being able to talk to the Tourist Guide or meaningless bar acquaintances.
Therefore I am looking forward to sharing travel & living experiences from abroad and from Germany, the place where I grew up and am currently living. If you have any questions about Germany (or Nepal), especially Middle & Southern Germany feel free to ask! For example, I can give you tips on hiking & biking areas, places for food & drinks, football sites, beautiful & original towns and perhaps many more :)
Right now I can just "maybe" host Couchsurfers, because I am living in a shared accomodation. Yet, I am planning to be more active when I move. Anyway, you can drop me a message and we will see!
