Warum ich auf Couchsurfing bin
To travel the world and meet amazing people.
Musik, Filme und Bücher
Movies are too many, music too little and books well...I'll read just about any good fantasy books, I'm a big Stephen King fan, love Jasper Fforde and his wacky yarns, getting into Ben Elton (This Other Eden was almost like a prediction), and for Sci-Fi I enjoy Iain M. Banks. Don't read many classics, I know I should, and I have a few favorite authors who I keep returning to.
Eine tolle Sache, die ich getan habe
Took my wife (then girlfriend) to a dream destination of her's called Sutherland in South Africa. It has one of the two biggest (at the time) telescopes in the world and has the most beautiful starry nights. Quite amazing and unbelievable to witness.

Don't exchange your money at the airports in Australia, they usually offer the worst rates as you don't have any other options. Get a bit of cash before coming here and then head into the CBD of the city to exchange the rest. A lot of stores will even match or beat competitors rates, so call around for quotes.
Was ich mit Hosts teilen kann
Great travel tips and foreign exchange advice.
Meine Interessen
