Overview
About Me
I am a very open minded and flexibel guy who wants to explore the world a little bit.
I am currently taking a gap year. So there is now one year to travel around the world, meet new friends and gain important experience for my further life.
My family lives on a farm by Münster, a city near the border to Netherlands in west Germany. We provide a program for children during school- holiday and also a therapy program for all ages. We do have lots of animals like pigs, horses, goats, chickens, dogs, geese and bees.
Additionally, I am a scout since 10 years now.
Scouting had become a very important part of my life. Meanwhile, I became a leader in my scouting-community.
The things I like most about scouting is the open minded community and the (outdoor) experience you earn.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
A lot of Friends told me about the nice experience they made on Couchsurfing.
I generally enjoy being in an open minded and natural environment, and that's a major advantage of Couchsurfing.
Interests
In my free time I do a lot of (outdoor) sports like taekwondo, hiking, camping, sailing, climbing and Mountain biking. I am always happy if someone shows me his or her hobby and takes me on a trip into another world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Once I was on hiking with the scouts and we decided to stay the night on a castle ruin. We sat up our camp and exactly at the moment when we went to bed a big storm came up. We quickly took our tents and went down the hill.
We searched for a simple house marked on our map as an emergency case camping place. As we arrived we only found a bench, which was pretty funny but not good for us. We sat up an improved tent. After a few minutes we noticed that we had a few holes in our tent, so it took another hour to fix the problem. At the end we got into bed at 4 o clock, tired, but happy and enriched with another important experience.
Shit happens, but problems being solved in a most improvised way are the experiences we do remember the most.
