CURRENT MISSION

be me.

ABOUT ME

i am interested in literature, philosophy and photography. i love discussing life over a good wine or just beer. i'm really into animal rights, so i love talking about that too.

what else? digital native. idealist. subscriber to national geographic for 10 years. traveling with a backpack sometimes. mostly traveling alone and keen to meet smart people during the trip with whom i can travel along for quite a bit.

PHILOSOPHY

let me quote german philosopher & anarchist max stirner: "whoever will be free must make himself free."

it's all inside you. discover it. live and let live.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

let me show you this beautiful city: hamburg. i may introduce you to the various sights and the infamous night life. i know lots of vegan and vegetarian food and shooping spots too. i can teach you some hamburg slang and tell you the meaning of "hummel hummel".

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i had wonderful experiences with couchsurfers from all over the world. it's great: you always meet somebody fascinating.

where i couchsurfed: ireland, sweden, norway, italy/rome.

Interests

i am interested in culture in every way. foreign cultures are my passion. meeting new people is like an obsession. i come along with nearly everybody and most people like my open-minded nature. i love humor, i am quite a funny person sometimes. (i am like chandler bing and marshall erickson in one person.)

and i have an app for everything.
