My name is Clemens and I live in Zurich, Switzerland, since 10 years.

I grew up in Germany and France and had the privilege of studying in Australia, France, Germany and Belgium. After a couple of years working for a Prime Minister of one of the German regions/states (Bundesländer), I had the opportunity to work of a company in Miami, Florida.

After that I accepted a position that lead me to Zurich, Switzerland. Here, I felt in love with this beautiful city and decided to stay… ☺️

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am NOT looking for a place to stay overnight.

I would love to meet locals that are open for an interesting exchange while showing me their favorite places in their town/area.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveling in Vietnam and meeting via Couchsurfing many friendly locals that showed me their favorite spots and restaurants in town.

In Portugal I met up with a lovely lady that invited me to a party of Brazilian friends - we had such a great time that we explored the city of Porto and finally separated in the early morning. Such a great experience!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Interesting discussions and funny conversations about history, politics, culture … and every day topics.

I love to have deep and meaningful exchanges.
