About Me

Open-minded, curious, easy-going, respectful, can't stay in the same place for long.

I have not lived in my home country Germany for more than a combined two years since I was 16.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There is no better way to get to know a place than through the eyes of a local.
Traveling is only half as fun without the people you meet along the way and who end up becoming your friends.

Interests

I love meeting fellow travelers and like-minded people and getting to know their stories. I study philosophy and would love to learn about yours. I enjoy music, film, literature, and a drink or two.
I like to take things the way they go, not plan ahead too much and go with the flow.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Met someone, just missed the flight, and had a wonderful time in Colombia.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some German if you're a sadist. Apart from that I roll a pretty decent cigarrette. I may not be the greatest teacher, but I like to share: hours and hours of videos on YouTube, the beverage of your choice, and lots and lots of stories. And when it comes to learning, I'd like to learn about you, your city, your talents, ...

What I Can Share with Hosts

A laugh, a drink, and a good story or two :)
