I'm travelling a lot, changing jobs a lot and enjoy meeting people and connect everywhere.

Most of my time, I spend in Hamburg, Germany. But especially during winter it get's too cold, dark, wet and dull here. Thus I prefer spending time abroad. Maybe Hamburg is underrated and not often enough acknowledged for the degree of openness and cultural diversity.

I read a lot, sometimes at the expense of going out and doing things. Also I learn languages out of curiosity. Call me a nerd.

I enjoy discovering the more subtle cultural differences and commonalities between all kinds of different people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Well... right now, I try to make use of it. But it seems to be a good idea. So as soon I got my flat, it will be open for couch surfers!

Interests

I once spent a weekend in Prague for a conference. I don't remember the talks as much as the cold beer and the discussions in the evenings at mild temperatures outside the venue ... you can't beat that.
