CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy life without a rush, because then you miss the small things that really count!

ABOUT ME

Easy going, game for anything adventurous and less is more type of guy

I am in my happy place when I am in nature. Either doing a hiking trail, camping with friends, mountain biking or enjoying some good wine in front of a fire.

I try to live a sustainable and simple life...

PHILOSOPHY

The journey is the destination is how I live my life. I also try to constantly simplify because I believe in the concept of less is more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A human being are made to give. I believe you have to give at least 10% of yourself away (time, music anything), unconditionally without public acknowledgement

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Best idea ever! Who wants to stay in a boring hotel if you have the oppertunity to engage with humans...

Interests

I am an outdoor person and must be out in nature otherwise I get depressed.
