I am 26 years old Student from the beautiful south of Germany. Better to say from the "Gate to the Black Forest", known as Pforzheim.

Currently I am studying International Development Studies at the University of Marburg. Fortunately, I am about to move to Madrid as an exchange student at the UCM.

Well, studying is not all I do. I have a passion for travelling, being on the road and especially to move by (hitch-) hiking. I am driven by my will power to descover remote nature areas and live on a minimum of material things. Photography as always been my companion since then. I love to listen to people stories from diverse backgrounds and capture them in their natural state and habit.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would love to connect with people from the country rather then staying with people and mentalities from where you grew up. Building a bridge by open up oneself to strangers is what makes us move closer together.

Therefore I think Couchsurfing is a wonderful place to meet such minded people.
I like to reflect on social topics, politics and circumstances which are given in a country.
A good travel implies to learn and to reflect on another culture.
