After 15 months of living and working in conservation and doing photodocumentaries in Latin America, I am back in Germany and just moved to Kiel where I do my Master in Sustainability, Society and Environment.

I would describe myself as an open-minded, nature- and culture-loving person, who loves to get to know new people, laugh, have good conservations and share experiences.

I love traveling, being out in nature - especially at the ocean and rainforest-, foreign cultures (especially indigenous), nature trips, go to new places and take pictures, sports - mainly outdoors (running, cycling, mountain biking, hiking, surfing) - yoga, dancing,...
Important topics and goals in my life are environmental protection, sustainable development, cultural exchange, and advancing tolerance - with active work and photo documentaries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a guest: to get to know places with locals and so get to know the real culture and lifestyle of a place.
As a host: to show people my home while getting to know people from various backgrounds, listen to their life stories and experiences and keep up the international travel lifestyle also back home.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to share stories, perspectives, hear about your culture, your interests and your way to see the world, having good conversations, cook together, go out for nature trips and outdoor sports (hiking, mountain biking, running, surfing), cultural events, partying and just have a relaxed and good time together! =)
As I am a photographer and artist and love to create thinks I am always happy to go out for taking pictures and doing art together if you are into that.

Things I wanna learn are playing the guitar and drums properly, salsa and practice my Spanish - so if you are good at that, I am happy to have a teacher =).
