Hi, my name is Yannick. I have only visited a hand full of countries yet. But from the few trips I did so far, I learned that the most important thing when traveling, and also in life, are the human connections we make and the love we share all around the word. There is so much to learn from each other through authenticity and kindness. I also do it for the fun and joy and to create memorable experiences. That's how I recently found out that cycling is the best way of traveling for me. Beeing on the bicycle gives me alot of joy and the exposure and vulnerability makes me feel even closer to my environment and the people I meet.

Currently I'm studying industrial design and also work as a playground designer in my home town of Zurich. My goal for the future is to create spaces where people from all ages can have fun, connect and share kindness and knowledge. But for now I'm enjoying the summer in Zurich where I love to go swimming in the lake or river, reading books in the park or dancing and connecting with friends and trying to practice mindfulness while not taking everything to seriously.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
