I'm a social person, I love people and I love to chat with everyone!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'M ONLY HOSTING DURING THE WINTER MONTHS: NOVEMBER - MARCH
When I was young (before the kids) I travelled to some places and countries and was welcomed by several nice hosts and slept on various couches and matresses before couchsurfing even existed. Now my first kids are out of the house and slowly there is more room again.
If you send me a nice request and I happen to have time during your requested days I will offer you a bed in our house for 1 or 2 nights.
DON'T come here with a rolling suitcase or if you want to visit the Jungfraujoch (it is super touristy!).
I believe that if you have Fr. 200.- to spend on that ticket you can also pay for a night in a hotelroom.
People who are somewhat adventurous or come by foot or bicycle are most welcome!
