I've been living as an expatriate for a while now. I've really enjoyed learning about each of my host countries! These have included countries in Europe, East Asia and North Africa.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Couchsurfing is a perfect blend between meeting new and interesting people, seeing new places with an insider's perspective, and finding very affordable accommodations. It has been my privilege to participate in this community as a host and a surfer over the course of the last ten years.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I can only choose one?!

I had a wonderful experience WWOOFing on a farm in a small Japanese village in Saitama. We rode bicycles to work in the fields; used the day's harvest to prepare our meals; played baseball with a bamboo bat and a ball of yarn; made musical instruments from bamboo and other natural materials. I have such good memories of that time.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I love to teach people informally. Knowledge is a powerful thing and the quest to acquire it is made more enjoyable by people who are passionate and generous, though humility is essential too!
