About Me

I used to be a mechanic. I fulfilled my desire to travel by driving a lorry and tried to study a bit psychology. But life had other plans with me. And showed that by throwing a rescue dog in my lap. This motivated me to learn more about dog behavior, and I'm still learning.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because of that dog I was restricted in traveling. So I offered other travelers a place to stay in stead. Meeting people from abroad will enrich my life :-)

Since my beloved dog passed the flower bridge, I'm travelling again. And hope to meet a lot of people with similar interests.

Interests

The beauty of nature, music, dancing, humans and other animals, traveling, spiritual growth, climbing, hiking, sailing, yoga, plant based food

Book: the world according to Garp, Christiane F, not without my daughter, desert flower, the hobbit, and more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just one thing? Let me take the first odd experience. Ending up in Berlin without money. I'll never forget that one. I had to put down my pride, let go fear and ask for help. Turned out to be a great lesson. Always keep the faith!

Teach, Learn, Share

If you got time to spend, I'd love to take you for a walk (throug the woods), cittytour, sailingtrip, fly the kite, visit at the climbinggym or indoor ski/snowboard facillity.
You're going to discover what you don't know about dogs.
And of course we can talk about anything what's on our mind.
