Since April 2022, I am traveling around the world by bicycle. I have neither a final destination, nor an end date, I just try to follow my heart and to enjoy every day, without caring too much about the future ☺️ What I already learned on my trip, is that it's impossible to plan much in advance! I started using Couchsurfing on my trip and I am so happy and thankful for the many amazing people I have already met!

I would describe myself as a very respectful, friendly and easy-going person. I love to meet new people but I am also good in being on my own. Good food and drinks always make me happy, just like doing sports, spending time in nature, cuddling animals and reading books. I'm also currently trying to incorporate yoga and meditation into my routine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In my experience the encounters with people – both locals and other people – are the most lasting memories, and they are what makes the journey unique. And as I spend a lot of time on my own, cycling and camping, it's nice to have company in between.
