About Me

***I do not host on Karneval***

I want to live life to the fullest, select breathtaking moments and share deep conversations with all kinds of interesting people.

I'm a hundred percent reliable and like people who are the same. I am open, honest and direct. Life is too short to not be your real self :-)

I am often busy with work and freetime activities and I only accept Couchsurfers when I have the time and energy to really enjoy the experience. So please understand when I have to decline. When I do accept though, I will make sure to give you a wonderful stay :-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I surfed on a few couches in USA and Japan - and its always a great experience to meet people who like the idea of sharing. To meet the trustful, helpful and generous Couchsurfing community literally restores my faith in humanity and makes me feel so blessed! I try to give back all the great experiences I've had by hosting as much as possible (my tight working schedule and business trips get in the way sometimes) and by being an open-minded and respectful guest :-)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you about Cologne and it's culture, I can teach you about Psychology and improving working environment if you're interested in that, or show you how to make delicious pastry.

I would like to learn about different cultures and ways of life. I am always interested in your work and work environment because I am looking for ways to renew the work culture in Germany. I am learning how to knit and garden, maybe you can help me with that? :-)
