Hi everyone! I’m Benedikt from Paderborn, Germany. After finishing my studies in engineering I do everything to not start working but rather explore the world a bit ;)

I'm very open minded and strongly interested in different cultures, ways of living and most notably in people all over the world. I’m hungry for knowledge and curious to hear your stories and like to share some with you. Hope to see you soon!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The most authentic way of traveling is by meeting locals and experience their lives. And for that couchsurfing is the easiest thing to meet awesome people and places.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music like Rock, Soul, Funk, Blues, Metal, Jazz fusion, especially from the 70s like prog and basically everything that contains guitars and some more. :D Modern Movies like the ones from Christopher Nolan such as Dark Knight, Prestige or Inception but also Lord of the Rings and a lot more. Also love older ones like the godfather or even things from Hitchcock. Books from Walter Moers, like Rumo. In general I like nearly every genre as long as it is well made and with some kind of passion.
