'If you feel aversion or attachment towards something, that’s your clue that there’s work to be done'
Ram Dass

I'm Martin from Cologne, Germany.
I'm easy to handle, outgoing, sporty, relaxed, openminded and way nicer than I look ;) I love old cars and bikes and obviously tattoos.

If you wanna get a clue about who I am, here's a short portrait about my work by a german TV station:

Here you’ll find me on Instagram:

P.S.: I don’t buy a verified membership on purpose - I think the pretty cool concept of Couchsurfing should not be capitalized. So if you see the badge 'verified' on my profile, it’s because I hosted someone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet cool people while travelling. It makes a journey way more interesting, special and fun.
Furthermore it's priceless to know a local who knows what's up in his city.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quitting my job as an engineer to open up my own boxing gym was one of the best decisions ever.
My last trips through Europe were a blast too. You can see some pics at

Teach, Learn, Share

I can show you some of the nicest spots in my city where you don't have to feel like a tourist.
I also own a boxing gym full of cool people. If you are planning to work out you can join one of my sessions. Conversations with me tend to go deep into topics like passion, the universe, consciousness and what we are.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a professional coach in olympic boxing. If you like to learn the basics or get some general tips for your workout or nutrition, I'm your man. If working out is not for you, we can just have a conversation and a beer or two. Furthermore I can fix things.
