CURRENT MISSiON

Travelling the world in my van.
Bring and share joy and happiness.
Find the moments that make life so great.

ABOUT ME

I finished my studies at the end of 2021 and decided to go on an open ended journey. I'm travelling in a small yellow van.

I am honest, open minded, happy, surprisingly mature and silly at the same time and also self sufficient. I enjoy living life as it comes, accepting it and playing with it. I believe that we are one with the universe just as a wave is one with the ocean. There is no separation except for where there is :)

PHILOSOPHY

Live life now. Enjoy it, embrace it.
Don´t worry so much, the past and the future are concepts, only the present is real.
Look at the stars, the plants, the mountains, the people, the animals, the sea and the sky, dancing together and dying together and then tell me it's not perfect.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now I want to travel and explore the world, so I mostly couchsurf or meet up with people.
I have a van that I sleep in, so it's ok if you don't have a couch to spare. Sometimes a good talk and a warm shower are more than enough.

When I have the opportunity to host I would like to give back at least what I have received, hopefully much more.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Fantastic, Couchsurfing connected me with some of the best people I have ever met.

Interests

Right now I'm trying to get into trekking and mountaineering. Still a beginner, but enthralled by it. Before I began this trip, I used to regularly boulder, ride motorcycles and box. Generally I really enjoy being active, no matter the sport. An important aspect for me is trying to find one's limit and expanding it.

When it comes to interests of the mind, I find human relationships fascinating and also people's personal philosophy, spirituality and morals. Besides that I enjoy stand up comedy, music that fits the moment and most of all passionate people. I really love passion, irrelevant what it is about.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like most entertainment unless its preachy or trying too hard. For me it doesn't matter, which genre or category something is. Most recently I really enjoyed the show "The Sopranos" for it's great dialogue and magnificent exploration of human morality. When it comes to music I just got into Slap House and I have to say, despite being repetitive and cliche, it really appeals to me right now. I'm also a life time fan of Steinbeck, Bukowski and Alan Watts.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling overland from New Delhi to Istanbul.

Living in the wild of the Australian rainforest.

Almost drowning in Greece (it's a good story I swear).

Exploring the catacombs underneath Paris.

Finishing my first construction project.

Deep water soloing for the first time.

And much more I can tell you about in person.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach boxing, climbing, German, English, Polish, and how to farm lettuce.

I gladly share all my travel, woodworking and mechanics knowledge if you want it.

I would like to learn anything YOU are passionate about.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will hopefully lighten up your day and put a smile on your face. And make life seem a little bit more fun and silly.

Also I am a very hands-on person. So if you need any help building or fixing something, I'll be eager to help you.
