Hey, I am Philipp from Hamburg, Germany.

I am a very open minded and social person, love to swim, dance, try different/new types of food and explore other cultures/countries!

I am a business student with focus on international management and intercultural studies, I also work in the advertising industry on the agency side.

Feel free to ask me anything, I am happy to talk with you, share some food and experiences/stories!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people and learn more about other cultures. Also of course, due to the fact I am still a student and on a small budget for my travels it is a good way to come around. ;)
