Hi all. I'm from 🇩🇪 Germany. When I was 17, I moved to California.

Thanks to being able to work from my laptop, I can travel several months every year. I'm also a professional Photographer, so this makes traveling even more important to me.

I'd describe myself as a very kind, patient, and respectful person, but yet I can also be super crazy and can have lots of fun with the right crowd. I believe that I can interact and get along with nearly everybody. Positive energy and good vibes are always very important.

"Life is 10% what happens and 90% how you react to it"
If you understand and believe in this Philosophy, I hope we meet.

The only thing that separates us people is one conversation, so let's not deprive ourselves and have a good conversation!

If I contact you, I have carefully read your profile. If you contact me, please be more creative than just "Hi" or "You can stay with me". I'm generally not interested in a host. In all these years, I've hosted many, but I have only let one person host me. I am only interested in meaningful and productive interactions.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

Traveling is the desire to step outside your comfort zone, explore the world, meet different people, to be curious, and want to learn and appreciate other cultures. And this is what brings me to CS.
Some of my most memorable interactions occurred when meeting travelers, and I was always able to learn something new.

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

I accepted a very spontaneous last minute invitation to hike San Gorgonio Mountain in California (this hike takes anywhere from 9-15 hours when all done at once, is about 17 miles long, and +5,800 ft high in elevation)

Without doing much research, I took a ridiculous amount of Photography equipment with me. This made this hike, the most physically and mentally challenging activity of my life, even more challenging.

I was left with my entire body being sore and not being able to move my neck for 6-7 days no matter how many cold showers and pain killers I took.

Чем я могу поделиться с хостами

I'm flexible and like to accommodate the travel goals of my guests.

Personally, I enjoy even the most simple things such as exchanging stories. It's like therapy for me. I'm a very good listener and can also be very talkative.

I love walking/hiking and
