I have been traveling around Europe since February 2015 until recently; in average another bed once a week. In April 2018 I made the step to get stable, living in an eco-community in the south of Spain for at least a year to really be able to know what it means to live in such a place. It's all about finding out where my life is serving the most this precious life on earth. I have this theory that it will take me as long as the time I went through the process of "higher education" to now re-learn the connection to the omnipresent divine (or however you want to call it).

I have been working on organic farms and as a carpenter, which is what I learned in Germany. I gave and visited seminars and workshops in youth-work, non-violent communication, sociocracy, empowered fund-raising, Vipassana Meditation and much more. I visited ecovillages and communities, looking for ways to live in a healthy way - for myself, the others and the environment.

Life changing for me was the participation in the 4-week long Ecovillage Design Education in the community of Glarisegg, Switzerland in 2016 as participant and 2017 & 2018 as supporting staff.

I live 99% vegetarian and 75% vegan, something like that. It just makes sense to me in this world - and I believe in the small change!

Be Yourself!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm am a fan of good conversations and discussions. I like to understand the opinion of the others. I know the potential of inter-cultural exchange to foster peace in this world. And from an ecological viewpoint, hotels etc. are definitely much worse than using resources that are already there.

Teach, Learn, Share

I always have some some dried sourdough with me - If we don't have enough time to bake ourselves, I can at least leave you some pieces and an explanation how to make you own 100% natural bread :)
