About Me

I'm outgoing, polite, interested in lots of topics. I like to sing, to do sports, to party, to cook, to conversate. I love culture and history.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been on CS since 2009 when I started to get this intense feeling of traveling abroad. Since then, I've met couchsurfers all over Europe and loved the experience. I slept in a lightning house, in a caravan, on a balcony, it was so great. Unfortunately, CS deleted the content of my profile, so here I am again!

I hitchhike a lot and couchsurfing is the ideal counterpart for that. Meet even more people, to be planned OR spontanious, visit so many new cultural influences on a personal level.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I love to motivate people and show them their potentials. Some years ago I met a guy who just dropped out of college, got out of a relationship badly and had severe issues with his employer. While playing a decent chess match on a nice May evening, I suggested to study Math to him - since he owned me quite well on the board.

Many years later I met him again coincidently, we played again and after half an hour I recognized him. "Oh you! How is it going?" I asked him. "Quite well! I'm writing my bachelor thesis now in Math." Boy I was glad. And although I lost again, I left the chess table with a big smile on my face.

Teach, Learn, Share

Of course I can teach you some basuc strategies in chess, I'm pretty good at interpreting people since I'm used to work in Sales, so maybe I can tell you some psychological stuff.

Also I know how to play the harmonica. Or to open a beer bottle with another beer bottle. Or a CD. Or a ticket machine. Or a lighter..

Oh I forgot almost.. I'm pretty good at photoshop. I can teach you that as well.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I want to cook for you!
