My name is Benny and I‘m a 24 year old student from German. Right now I‘m travelling from Cancun to Mexico City, from where I will fly to Peru.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing provides the opportunity of getting in touch with interesting people from all over the world and this is the reason I want to try it from time to time.

Interests

I also like beer and almost every kind of physical activities with hiking beeing my favourite one while travelling.

• beer
• live music
• hiking

Music, Movies, and Books

I‘m totally into the classic era of rock music, therefore I could talk for hours about the Beatles, Pink Floyd etc.
But I also enjoy discovering new sounds and genres and if a 2010s pop song is played on the radio, you might here me singing along as well. In my Band called „Met on Monday“ I play bass, and I‘m the only one in the band without a microphone because I totalled can not sing (although I‘m sure that I‘m the loudest singer in the band). We do small gigs at Festivals or in Clubs and cover rock songs and play a few self-created songs which are mostly Blink-182-alike pop-punk songs.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I‘m not very used to travel, this is my second backpacking experience after I travelled Israel in 2019/20. Getting in touch with locals and enjoying authentic food and places got me to the point where I decided that my Master thesis can also be done a few months later, so now I‘m here in Mexico.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can try to cook some German food (with no guarantee of success) but of course I‘ll do the dishes afterwards.
