CURRENT MISSION

As a student of environmental science I'm going to try to make this world a better place - at least a little bit better...=-)

ABOUT ME

Astronomer, Salsero, Musician, Cook - I'd like to be all those things. Actually I'am - but all of it just as hobby, so I'm not THE MAN in it but not too bad as well. Maybe it's because I'm interested in learning so many things so I can't reach a professional level at one of this topics. Anyway, I don't bother because I love to do it also at a lower level and I just try to improve step by step.
If you want to find out really everything about me you have to know me for ages...but if you want to find out more about me just meet me ;-)

PHILOSOPHY

It's essential to be open minded and interested in other cultures and people to understand the world a bit better. World is full of good and amazing people - so get in touch. But don't forget where you come from, don't forget people who have been accompaining trough good and bad times of your lifetime.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I discovered the great thing called travelling on my trip to Thailand, where I was an English teacher in a primary school on the countryside. It was amazing to expire the lifestyle of thai people far away from tourist streams. I got to know culture, language and people and with that knowledge I could enjoy my trip around Thailand quite different than the average traveller.
I'm ready to hit the road and be open to meet people from all over the world in countries I'm going to visit. When I surf your couch I promise to be a comfortable guest who accepts your rules and if you like I can cook something. Anyway, don't hesitate to contact me whoever you are, if you are visiting Lucerne or Zurich. I can show you around and tell you many things about my country and hometown.

I surfed officially in Stockholm and Copenhagen and inofficially in Hamburg during my northern Europe trip in Summer 2010.
