About Me

Hi, I’m Tommy. I’m on a long term trip since I left Germany in 2018. I began to love traveling and it has become a part of my life since. I would love meet you to exchange stories, share a good time and learn. I’m a big believer in Karma and I love to see that people share with strangers. What goes around comes around.
I love outdoor sports and I always try to do things I haven’t done before and challenge myself. I do rope access mechanical fitting for work and I love it.
I’m new here and haven’t got many references but everyone has to start at some point. Please don’t mind. I have a lot of stories to share and I love cooking for others!

As I’m a temporary long term traveler I unfortunately can’t host at this stage but if you’d like to visit the picturesque area called Eifel, which I can be lucky to call home I’ll find a host for you. This could be my parents or my friends.
