About Me

Wannabe geek interested in knowing different cultures and travel beside the beaten track (ooh, i use "the phrase" again), meeting people from all over the world and having a good time. Besides I'm into a lot of different outdoor activities, urban exploration, traveling (of course) and the other usual suspects. Some say I've a wired kind of humor and sometimes I'm defendant in being a little bit to sarcastic so don't take me to serious!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Eat, Sleep, Travel, Repeat!

After some years in a smaller city with only a few surfers i moved to Berlin and i'm back in the game... The experience so far could not be better and I look forward to meeting more CSers. I surfed in Germany, France, Italy, Japan, Switzerland, USA, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Austria, Seychelles and the Netherlands.

PHILOSOPHY

"Traveling is a brutality. It forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comfort of home and friends. You are constantly off balance. Nothing is yours except the essential things: air, sleep, dreams, sea, the sky - all things tending towards the eternal or what we imagine of it." - Cesare Pavese
