About Me

ABOUT ME

Some people say that I possess the typical German directness, but in a nice way ;)

PHILOSOPHY

Pantha rei
(Means to me: Everything is in a constant flow, constantly evolving and connected with everything else)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host, surf and love to show people around my town when I'm not able to host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first experience with CS was to surf Cazés couch in Portugal back in 2007 and he set such high standards in hospitatily and amability that I was totally amazed and fascinated by that concept ever since. I met, hosted and was hosted by so many different, interesting and fascinating people since I started to CS. It is clearly an enrichment to one's life!
