About Me

My friends would describe me as a clown who always wants to make people laugh.
I really love to meet new people and therefore I would totally like to get to know you! :-)

I am a backpacker trying to go with minimal luggage and currently I am experimenting with hitchhiking

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am travelling in order to connect with other cultures and I think Couch Surfing is probably the best way to make new friends in a foreign country.
Also I really enjoy a nice chat over being all alone in a single hotel room ;-)

Interests

My main interest are self-development and doing experiments with the way I do things. I like to mix up my routines and try to regularly try new things.
Also I'm very interested in Buddhism and how it can help you in your day to day life to be more calm, friendly and happy overall.
Furthermore, I really Love to juggle :-)

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen majorly to old rock music like LED Zeppelin or Iron Maiden.
I don't really watch movies but I really enjoyed Forest Gump.
My favourite books are 1984, Animal Farm and all quiet on the Western front

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My Trip to India and Nepal still amazes me until today :-)
Hitchhiking all the way from Bristol to Munich in two days

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach basic forms of meditation and the language learning method that got me to a decent level in Spanish within 10 months.
What I want to learn is a basic feeling for your country, the people and the culture

What I Can Share with Hosts

Some jokes and stories from previous travels ;-)
Right now I am doing various hitchhiking trips, that might be worth a story or two
