CURRENT MISSION

travel, learn, share, have fun, get lost

ABOUT ME

Crazy hair, almost always smiling and obsessed with traveling – that might be the shortest way to describe myself.

Once in a while I decide to reshuffle the cards and to start a new life. You can almost call this a lifestyle and I would like to inspire other people to also go for there dreams.

In June 2014 I quit my Job, sold my little possession and gave up my flat in Munich to travel the world again. I started in South East Asia, looking for new adventures and challenges. I love to learn from other people and I think traveling is the best way to learn, to change and to develop.

Before I started working as an IT professional I’ve studied audio engineering and I always had a big Interest for journalism and photography. Writing and taking pictures: That is what I want to do for now.

I just recently started writing about my experiences in a travel blog, you might want to have a look at www.nomadic-spirit.com

Looking forward to meet you!
Daniel

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I quit my job :D

Teach, Learn, Share

Coffee, Tea or Whiskey? Whatever, I just want to have a good conversation coming with it!

Laugh or be serious? Whatever, just be honest!

Besides talking and having fun I love to share my knowledge!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I've studied audio engineering, so if you want to record your band or get some tips and tricks about recording and editing audio tell me!

Also I would love to share my expieriences with photography and picture editing. Even if you never had a professional camera in your hands before it will be fun to do the first steps together!

If you are not interested in any of the above we will still have a good time chatting, exchanging funny travel stories and exploring your area!
