About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To keep my head above water. And have a blast doing so.

ABOUT ME

A Frankfurt native, happy to show you my hometown and surroundings - just like I have been hosted and shown around elsewhere by this great community. I am often out and about, usually preferring to hang out outside, and walk or bike to places, all of which Frankfurt is super nice and easy for. Happy to take you along.

Almost constantly immersing myself somewhere. For work or for fun.

I try to be mindful and adaptive, especially when just temporarily in the space/life of someone else as a guest.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Blessed with too many great memories to single out just one. Except for the recurring highlight of coming home and seeing my own world through new eyes

Languages, cross-cultural observations, and utterly useless nonsense
