About Me

CURRENT MISSION

learn something every day

ABOUT ME

Born some years ago, grew up in Switzerland, went to school as everyone else, went to High School and looked for a job opportunity and found something. With the little earnings of my job I went travelling for a couple of months. And now learning about informatics and working, and then travelling again.

PHILOSOPHY

Always look for the details, they are the most interesting thing!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I'm surfing, I really want to learn about the foreign country, the different culture. I want to know about things I don't know and want to make the best out of my knowledge. When I'm hosting, I still want to learn about different cultures, but I also want to teach others about my own culture and about that, what I've learned.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When I was travelling from west to east on the Java island in Indonesia, I was CouchSurfing for three weeks non-stop. What a great experience. I really got in touch with the Indonesian life and made many friends. Unbelievable. Since this experience, I will not travel without CouchSurfing again.
