I am 55 years old, but I feel much younger. I am an optimistic positive thinking and creative person. My job is engineer for street planing, but in my heart I am an art person. Photography and acting are my passions. I am a photo artist (my website photoart.top) and I am acting in an improvisational theater group. I have travelled 81 countries and I collect cities – in Germany, Europe and the world. In Germany I was in 190 of the biggest 200 cities. I am interested in languages, playing tabletennis, football (fan), food, politics, psychology, art, and architecture. I like black humour and weird situations.

I am working in aviation industry in Frankfurt, Germany as a NDT inspector (if you ever want to know what is it, i can explain) ... like everybody else in this website i like to travel , meet new people , cultures and languages ... in spare time i like to play bass guitar , sports (just to watch) , i like to go fishing , to read about geography and history ... i can always offer to bring souvenirs such as magnets , shirts , sweets, candies, keychains etc ... im very choosey about who will stay at my place. I believe the idea of this website is to make new friends , share some laughs and have a good time together. If you are looking for a free hotel , this is not the couch for you , so let me know why you choose me and your plans :-)
We are a relaxed, fun-loving couple with a cute son (ok, meanwhile 15 years old, but still cute at times...) Due to our jobs, we live in two places, Düsseldorf and Dreieich near Frankfurt. If you are lucky, you might get a chance to stay with us in our villa in the Dominican Republic (check out our gallery).
PLEASE NOTE: I am not interested in using CS as a chat room or a dating platform and I never accept friend requests from people who I have not met personally! For me CS is for meeting real people! COVID-19: Since all of us in the house are vaccinated I have started to host again. I am so happy that traveling is possible again and that we had some nice guests during the last weeks. 2016 my biggest dream has come true! I've been traveling Latin America January to May from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean. Met a lot of nice and open minded people on CS who hosted me, met up or helped with information on my way through Argentina, Paraguay, Bolivia, Perú and Costa Rica. Back home I enjoy meeting travelers here and giving back hospitality. And I developed the habit of traveling about 2 months every year. Last year I spent 2 weeks on Tenerife and 4 weeks in the Mexico - then Corona forced me to go home and stay here. Last winter with the hard lockdown, all borders closed, cold and ugly weather and the regulation to open all classroom windows every 20 minutes was the hardest in my life and made us all pretty tough. But now I am going to retire by the end of the year and hope to be able to travel again soon. I am living with my husband in Darmstadt, Germany, about 30 km from Frankfurt/Main. Our two sons are grown up and have moved out . Now we are sharing our house with students from different parts of the world, enjoying cultural exchange in everyday life and laughing about all the little misunderstandings. I have been working many years as a social worker in a local prison until 2015 but then jumped out of the hamster wheel, quit the job, went traveling, did some qualifying and started to teach German which I enjoy very much since I have students from all over the world attending my classes. Inspired by my travel experiences I am trying out a lot of new things.
