About Me

On the road again :)
After some years of studies and traveling I started to work - and having time to travel got a bit more difficult.
But now I settled and like to start exploring again.

About me: I am always curios about the real life around the world - the life behind the touristic scenary.
I love to get into culture, tasting the local food and get in touch with local art and music.
Furthermore, I really like the couchsurfing spirit as I could experience it within the last journeys. As soon as I have my own flat, I'll be open to host again.

In my daily life I am into sports, youth work, famliy and friends and music. In general, I am a very relaxed person whos not much into things and luxury but loving the moment.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sharing is caring. Get in touch and wide the own horizon as well as share experiences.
See the world through the eyes of a local.
Don't mind luxury. I mind the beauty of the normal.
Realized, that cs is the way to make any journey unique, cause traveling is all about the people you meet.

As I experienced, sharing a small part of the daily life togehter allows me so much more satisfaction then any touristic sight could bring. I realized after my last trip, that the stories that last, are those I painted a wall in exchange for a week-long couch, cooked food for neighbors, repaired a bike for a kid. And finally, to know a place thorugh the eyes of a local feels so different. So good.
