About Me

I enjoy spending time with friendly people very much, love traveling by bike and foot.
I started traveling in Germany by bicycle in September 2018 and I’m so much looking forward to get to know people and places South America.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I grew up with four brothers and sisters, lived together with many different people over the last 7 years and just enjoy meeting and getting to know friendly people.
In September 2018 my best friend and I left Germany and cycled across France and Spain. We crossed the Atlantic by sailing boat and are now spending time on the Carribian Islands. Here we live together with students, do hiking trips and play volleyball. We enjoy time playing music and parlour games, taking care of the house, talking, preparing and having tasty meals.
I´d love to share these and other activities with people form around the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It was last week at the beach. We were playing volleyball and I was totally concentrated, looking to the net, waiting for to ball to come. Suddenly I felt something soft touching my legs and hand from behind.
I turned around. It was a maybe 2 year old little boy. In the background I saw his family laughing. Then I unterstood why. His father come to pick him up. He took off his hat to show me what was going on. He had a beart as well as a bold head, just as I did. The little boy was completely confused - next to two amused "daddys"

Teach, Learn, Share

As I enjoy playing the ukulele and the harmonica, I really like motivating people to try the ukulele or the harmonica and give them a couple of lessens. Playing a little bit of music together is something that I´d like to improve as well.
I love dancing! I learned quite a lot standard dances at the age of 15, danced Hip-Hop later on and had fun dancing salsa and tango as well. Today I mostly enjoy dancing freestyle in little bars, but I`d be highly interested to get to know something knew!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I`d like to share moments in a good and relaxed atmosphere. Sitting together with a hot cup of tea, a cold beer or just a water is as fine for me. Sharing experiences and interesting and funny stories is something that I like as well as wondering through a town getting impressions of the place I´m at.
As I said before playing music and sharing my instruments is enjoyable for me as well as listening or dancing to most music types.
