About Me

ABOUT ME

Spontaneous, curious, bubbly, open minded, sportive and full of energy. Constantly seeking new challenges, adventures, the unconventional way of doing things and living life. I probably spend more time in the mountains than anywhere else. Totally into mountaineering, climbing, trailrunning and skitouring. On the other hand, I very much enjoy going out for a drink, good food, a concert or strolling in the city and see, who you bump into. Oh, and almost forgot that I am kind of crazy about helicopters :)

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy life as much as you can. Listen to your heart and do what YOU want, even when people laugh at or don't believe in or agree with you. Only do jobs you enjoy (very important!) and do what feels right.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have come to the point where I can't imagine traveling without couchsurfing anymore. All the people I have met through cs have broadened my mind, inspired me, let me see the world differently and brought me forward in many ways. For me it's the most adventurous, real and fun way to discover a new place.
