Hello guys, i'm Dimitri Kehler. I finished my Masters program last year, started hiking 600 km through Europe with a bagback, always along the coast side, went to Kirgistan for a month and also Nepal, always with my bagback and my tent. Just 3 months ago i moved to Karlsruhe and right now i'm working as an engineer in Bühl. So I'm not an local expert yet :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I met so many interesting, awesome, helpful people on my way: people, who stopped whatever they were doing just for a talk with a stranger, people who wanted to share their experiences, people with whom i shared a drink, a meal or a sleeping room, people who helped me fixing my equipment, people who went by bike and by foot from germany to nepal or india or china.
I want to keep this spirit alive.

Interests

Right now i'm listening alot to podcasts about startups (Matthew Mockridge for example). I've got a good book in my bag at any time :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share with you my kitchen and my room. There's no sofa right now, but i started looking for a good one. I can show you Karlsruhe and i know some good places for dinner. I'm not that into clubbing but always in for a drink. If you just need a place to sleep that's also fine.
