ABOUT ME

By traveling I learned to understand and respect different cultures. And I tried to pick the good values and make them my own.
So my friends live all over the world.
I am always open and happy to meet new people. And if you plan some activity, I don't take long to decide.
Lets go...

I visited 60 states (26.6%)

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I travelled all over the world on a low budget before there was CS, on many different couches and places, meeting so many wonderful people.
Now with CS I hosted a lot of people from different countries.
After a few good and quite some disappointing experiences I only reply on personal requests.
No reply on all these copy/paste requests!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Since I traveled single most of the time and always tried to experience and 'live' the local culture I was often invited to couches. Long before I ever heard about CS.

It's a pity that recently the original CS idea gets tainted by too many people who just want a free hotel room and don't really care for their host.
Even last minute cancellations and no shows become common.
