About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Stay on track.

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in Cologne, studied in Northern Germany with some time in Canada and Israel in between. Right now I work in Cologne as a TV journalist. I came back to my home town by coincidence, but Cologne is nice. I know quite alot about the Roman history and stuff like that, but the city changed while I was ten years away. That´s why I am always open to discover things together with my guests like museums, festivals, cafes and "Brauhäuser". There is so much that I don´t know about yet.

PHILOSOPHY

Do as you would be done by.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
