About Me

Hi, I am a 29 years old person, who has learned carpentry, studied architecture and has worked in many different areas and situations. I am still in search for myself and a life mission. So I started a journey to get to know different realities, perspectives, consepts and get inspired by other people and projects.

I get motivation and happiness from learning new things, the meaning of what I am doing and from connection with other beeings.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I had a lot of great surfing experiences in a few differet countries. I like to get connected to local people, while traveling.

Interests

I am interested community-projects, ecovillages or any type of project, where people learn and work together in a social way. Educaton in a very wide sense is also a big topic, that I am interested in.
Any types of crafts and constuctions, planning and building houses, especially working with wood or other sustainable materials.
Working/playing with children, making music, working on the soil, or with trees and plants.
Good conversations, learning about emotions.
I have spent some years of my life beeing obsessed with climbing, but right now, my focus is not so much on that anymore.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love to listen to a wide variety of music (from dubstep till classic) and I guess, Ihave my own special taste.
I am allways very keen to get to know new good music.
Recently I discovered, that I like lots of traditional folk music. So I would like to get to know the different traditional music in the different places.

Also i like reading books... all different kinds.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have worked as a woodwork teacher in a school in India.
I have lived in a van for almost two years.
I rediscovered my emotions.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to share my passions like woodworking, climbing, singing, trust, communication and other affections, that I have and on the other hand get inspired by the skills and loves others have.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to do any kinds of crafts and construction. So if there is anything to build or repair, I am up to it!
I am not a good cook unfortunately, but to compensate that, I am a good dishwasher. :)
