I am a skating, snowboarding, guitar playing half swiss half finnish (my mom is from Finland) dude from Switzerland who lives in a self built VW T4 van.

In 2018 I was driving with my car to Finland on my own and I also slept in my car. I was exploring all the countries on my way and I loooved meeting new interesting people. I have already met so much nice people and I would like to meet more! This trip was my first trip alone and it was awesome!

After that I was working as a snowboard teacher and worked for a sustainable clothing brand in Switzerland named NIKIN! It was one of the best jobs I ever had but I had to move on and now I am living in a VW T4 with my girlfriend since October 2019.

We (my girlfriend and me) are travelling through Europe with our van and are right now driving trough Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.

Next spring we will go to Indonesia to also see a little bit of Asia.

We want to live a different life than all the "usual people" do.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Its an easy way to meet new people, especially locals, so they can show me around. For me its not that important, that i can sleep somewhere, because ive got my car to sleep in. I will be happy with a shower and/or some tipps, what I could do around your place :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The trip in 2018 to Finland I did: Quit the job and just gooo!; and two years later I'm doing the same but this time I'm living in a van and the trip is even easier!
