CURRENT MISSION

Trying to concentrate my diverse interests into a productive way

ABOUT ME

Back to the roots: I am originally from a rural region in Northern Bavaria, Germany. When I turned 16 I already had my first driver's license to be able to escape the village where I was living, at least for some time... Although I was always interested in international politics, diplomacy and such stuff, I studied industrial engineering. Don't ask me why... At least, I ended up where I wanted after this studies... in the solar industry. That's why I was in Spain for quite some time, working for a solar project in Southern Spain.
Besides trying to harvest the sun, I like doing sports, listening to music, playing drum-set, and of course, traveling!
Looking forward for some encounters and meetings with you people out there!

PHILOSOPHY

The immaterial value of travelling outreaches the material value of any object you could acquire.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I never did Couchsurfing myself until now. During my last trip to Indonesia, however, I first heard about this concept from a fellow traveler. And now I am eager to participate :-)
