Hey my name is Ruben,
I'm 24 years old and live in the south of Germany near to the border of Switzerland. I live now since 6 months in Canada on my Working Holiday Visa and spend the most time in Vancouver. But now it's time to travel again. In march/april I want to travel along the west coast of the US all the way down to Pioneertown for a festival. I make a stop in Portland (for a concert) and stay probably for a week, the same like with San Francisco. Would be great if I find some nice people along the way that host me for a few days.

my philosophy: LIFE is the only thing worth living for

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
