About Me

I am a young open guy who want's to see the world. I grew up in Germany in the medium sized city of Karlsruhe. While going trough school i travelled a lot of europe from norway to italy eighter with friends or family. Still in school i went to america, my first time leaving europe with my father to visit an airshow. With the age of seventeen i went to india with a school projekt where we helped our partner school that educates the very poor population for one week and traveld parts of kerale for another week. A year later i finished school and went working for 2 months to financiate my first big trip, 7 months of New Zealand. There i trevalled for 3.5 months all over the two Islands and helped people of WWOOF also all over NZ for the other 3.5 months. Back in Germany i worked again to financiate my next trip to south west Asia. After that i started studying mechatronics. Now i lve in a shared flat together with my buddy with whome i travelled trough Asia.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the idea of young people helping each other out and making big journeys with a low budget possible. I am interested in not only seeing the country i travel to but also get to know the people living there and the culter in general. Not to be left out is the fact that it is a whole lot easier and heaps more fun to travelle a country with the help of locals. When i reach the point of having my own home i would love to be a Host as well and give back what was given to me by all the amazing people all around the World.

Interests

I have always been interested in sports and love all outdoor activitys. I've been swimming eversince i was 5 and reached a quiet high level. Whenever there was time i tried different sports from rockclimbing to whitewater paddling which brought me to the Soja and the Durance. Other then that i love skiing and most sports in the snow.
