Overview
About Me
At the moment (if we are not travelling) I live with my girlfriend and our daughter in a flat in Leipzig South City Center. I may decide on the date if i host you in my parents village house or city depending on your dates and my plans that date ;)
ABOUT ME
I fell in love with languages and traveling in England!I went there because of work. After my time in the UK I decided to learn Spanish too for a warmer change and started as a Translation student for English and Spanish and finished successfully! After more traveling around the world I am back in Leipzig and very happy to give the great hospitality back to other travelers!

Viel zu spaet begreifen viele die versaeumten Lebensziele:

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
seeing the first sun on earth from Mt. Warning near Byron Bay on the east coast of Australia after a 2h climbing walk at 4 in the morning...(and stumbling over a big diamond python on the way back :-)
Well... the white pointer in Esperance (WA) is a different story :S (I didn´t have a cage)
During a work trip I could join the 3 pilots of a B777 for starting and landing in the cockpit and on the way back from Hongkong a B747very cooool !
Teach, Learn, Share
I could teach German if someone needs to learn this strange language ;) and I share what needs to be shared, we can start with some funny travelling stories, life, love, lust :)
What I Can Share with Hosts
lots of travel stories, experience, advise, opinion if you want to know mine, but I like to share what is needed to be shared. I think sharing is they key to many problems and I am happy about everyone who has somethig to give. I definitly find something to share with you.
