ABOUT

Me,
Hmm. Adventurous, like to try new things, and open to learn anything new as well like to teach.

There is many things I like and like to do. But most of them have often something to do with nature and health. Maybe because lot of my time I have spent doing speed skating/sports and working as an Arborist and Landscaper.

I love traveling, and I think its in the family, as I traveled pretty every year with my parents when they had holidays. I also lived a few times in the UK for couple of months for traineeships and even studied arboriculture there. And went to China for a couple of days for an Ecoutourism advise project.
But my first solo Journey was New Zealand. And not just standard backpacking like most do, but traveling around on a Motorbike. How awesome is that! Freedom!

Traveled from Australia to Singapore and then back home, but I wont be long at home, as soon as I have made enough money I will go get a Working Holiday Visa for either Australia or Canada. So if anybody has tips for me for work and travel for either, tell me!

While traveling or when not doing sports or working I like to make photos and videos. Selftought and learning new things everyday.

My interests are wide ranged, and as I said before I like to learn.
For now I mainly like to learn about anything to do with landscaping, plant medicine, dancing(salsa/bachata/kiz), motorbikes and just adventure stuff or just any interesting thing coming by.

NOTE: If I host you or you host me, dont forget to write a review! I always write one and find it rude if somebody else doesnt. Thanks. As I might not use couch surfing as much anymore I might not alway write one here, but I have always acces to the other platforms so I can write you a review there.

Also put this secret word: GREEN somewhere in your request, so I know you have read my profile. Thanks!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To find good a stay, and meet cool people while traveling as well helpout others ;-)

I have done lots of couchsurfing and hosting within and outside the app as well and find it a much nicer way and awesome way to learn a country, meet cool people and see awesome places and like to show others around as well! Also its just a awesome way of meeting strangers in strange countrys who then often become your friends!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teaching people the things I learned is amazing, I like it!

I have no problems at all to share my knowledged, give advise, teach etc about the things that interest me. Ask and I tell you all about it.

On the other hand I also like to learn things myself, things within my interests as well as new stuff.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Share my knowledge, teach, chill, have fun, play some games and talk.
When possible I travel with some board/cardgames to play

And I have no problem to help in the house, like dishes or cooking, just ask.
For cooking it will be easy recipys as I dont know much or we can try out something new together.
