/ ABOUT ME
currently based in berlin doing print/ web design
i’d say i’m a quite easy going responsible person that likes it’s place preferably clean and somewhat tidy, rarely the one that speaks up but rather someone more restrained (which doesn’t mean you can't go out with me the whole night if you’ll find some fresh music around) sometimes i have an awful lot of work to do, so it happens that i can’t hang out with guests all day long. when on a journey though i'm willing to accompany you to any event etc. you’d like to go but will also help you out with doing dishes, laundry or refill your fridge!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

every now and then while i’m seeing streets getting paved, facades getting painted, new residences being built - all shining brightly, i’m seeing humans getting evicted, communities being gated and rents ramping up

all of that makes me feel that there should be more of people that care but luckily for you we have enough space to share (:

i hosted friends and friends of friends and also perfect strangers. at the same time however i got offered a warm shower, a bed, a couch, the floor of a tent or a camping van to spend the night.
therefore i guess i know, how rewarding it always is to get in touch with a local, making friends, sharing a meal or interesting stories

furthermore i’d really love to see a world where everyone would once invite someone strange over to their place. that would be a place i'm sure, much more relaxed, shedding much the barriers of average joe to go out and explore things beyond one’s own nose
