About Me

ABOUT ME

oh, hmmm. lets go to drink a coffee, and I will tell you something ;-)
I love good food and and good drinks. Some years ago, when I was in Italy again, I got in touch with the Italian Caffe-culture and I decided to buy my own italian Espresso machine. The Italian Coffee is short and very strong, but not bitter: It's a concentrate of the coffee flavour.
That shows, that its not important how much you get or have, but from what quality it is, whether it is coffee (Italian Espresso / big cup from Starbucks), friendships, food, ...

My two sisters, brother and me grow up in the south of Germany, in the very beautiful city Freiburg. After finishing school, I was working for one year in the German Alps in a hospital as alternative service.
Untill 2015 I lived in Stuttgart and studied Aerospace Engineering. After my graduation I moved back tolles Freiburg, actually just for the next month's, but accidentally I found a Job in Freiburg which I like. So I have the pleasure to live in that wonderfull place again :-)

To travel is the best thing to get to know something about the world and the people and cultures there. If I am on a journey, for me it's very exciting to see how all the different cultures live their life, what they eat and drink, which music they like and, of course, the stories they know!

PHILOSOPHY

We are the new generation. We have to lead the world into a modern way of generating energy and the responsible use of it. We have to find a way how it is possible to feed all the people, without overexploitation of the nature in the own, but especially in other, third world countries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

After many friends told me their fantastic experience with CS, I also wanted to be part of this. I think CS is a very good idea for people, who like to travel, meet people in their country and have some interesting days together, or just a couch for the night!

Interests

Making music, travelling, skiing, paragliding, nature and mountain sports generally meet people, have fun and enjoy the life :-)
