About Me

I'm still a young man, time's passing by quite slowly...(I wrote this in 2015 and this was definitely wrong :D )
I used to work for some years as a freelance photographer in Berlin and experienced a lot of different and enriching experiences throughout this time. But then I decided to make a cut and I left this chapter behind. I started to plan a world trip and took a plane to Vietnam, starting my journey within a 40L bag pack. Inspired by my travels, I got back to Germany to study urban planning. I need to be active and I need a lot of input to surpass myself. In the future, I think about working in the field of urbanism to plan sustainable cities for the future and international development assistance for the UN. I want to work everywhere around the world for about 20 years before I settle somewhere. Around this, hmmm we will see...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a perfect way to discover new cultures and it's such an interesting way, or maybe the only true way to travel.
I just love it, I've made excellent experiences !

Interests

well traveling and trail running in the mountains, snowboarding, photography, interviewing, bike packing, gym, race cycling, reading random newspaper articles, funny reels, hanging out with friends (!)arts and museums, surfing, random history, party, philosophy, asking many questions, good literature

Music, Movies, and Books

Sometimes live jazz with wine, sometimes rock in the car, French music for a croissant breakfast or techno at a festival

Currently I learn to play saxophone again after some longer interruption. Looking ahead, I'd like to play jazz with friends in some smoky bars. I love smoky jazz bars!

I used to read a lot of non-fiction but I think now I'm ready for more fun stuff again.
Audiobooks are superb, in my Audible account I have more than100 audio books
I will ask you for your movie advise
