2019
After a stunning year in Oceania and Asia, i returned. It has been but a minute until i started seeking a new adventure. 3 months in New Zealand, bought and sold a van, a month in Tasmania, about a week each in Melbourne (+ Great Ocean Road), and Sydney (+Blue Mountains).
after that, i went to Vietnam, bought a motorbike and in addition to a scenic 5000km route, which took me about 4 months, i also visited each island. going into detail would be too much, but id love to share some stories!

Looking for Nature, Surf Spots, Language & Cultural Exchange

2018

Exploring New Zealand together with Lisa, a good friend of mine, with Samantha "Sammie", our reliable 1994 Toyota Liteace. Looking for places to crash and people to hang out and adventure with. If you want to hike, camp, fish, skate, surf, drink or chill with us - let us know!

Hey! I recently finished the obligatory year of social service one has to do in Austria; i worked for the Caritas NGO, caring for disabled people in Austria. Id like to travel as much as possible before starting uni, and i share the philopsophy behind CS - meeting great people while saving money on a Hotel. I love skating; going out; music; going to the museum; art; black coffee and green tea;cooking, and of course, exploring far and near, rural and urban places. I look forward to friendly encounters with you :)
