Hi dear couchsurfer!

Outside of studying in my favorite field which is Hospitality, I have some paradoxal hobbies. To feel good I need a balance between nature and the city life.

From the nature I love to:
Hike
Ski
Climb
Meditate
Dive

From the city life I do need:
Clubbing
Collecting Vinyls and Dj
Museums
Arts
....

To be be honest I have never used couchsurfing so far, except for the Hangout app, here's why:

Over the years, I started to lose my original excitement and motivation about travelling with friends from hotel to hotel. Instead, I wanted to live an authentic experience while meeting locals. With my friends we started to backpack and camp around Europe while we were doing a rail trip from Switzerland to Sweden. Then we experienced backpacking in Asia sleeping in hostels and meeting many other backpackers on the way. These experiences were GREAT, but I still had the feeling that at the end I didn't really know much more about those countries.

This WHY I am heading to couchsurfing and volunteering app like HelpX to have the chance to live and work with locals to deeper understand their culture.

If you want to know more about me don't hesitate to contact me and I'll give you my number :)

Happy days,
Max

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Diving in Maldives in the middle of hundred of sharks

Teach, Learn, Share

I am passioned about Dance Culture from the 80ties till now, how cultural movements were linked to it and how it has impacted our societies.

I have also interest for geopolitics, how the nature works, psychology, leadership/management,...
So I would love to share my knowledge about these very diverse topics and learn from others.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Have some deep conversations about their perception of the world. It could be their point of view of politics, religion, spirituality or just talk about an interest we have in common.

And of course talk about our cultural differences to try to better understand each other's culture.
