CURRENT MISSION

To experience foreign cultures in the most authentic ways- to value others and to see the world through the traveller's eyes

ABOUT ME

My name is Felix and I have just recently graduated from the Bachelor programme "Tourism and Leisure Management" in Krems and der Donau, Austria.

Right now, I am doing a round-the-world trip with my brother from mid-october to early february 2015.

So right now I am unable to host but actively looking for people to host my brother and me in various corners of the world. We would like to use this platform to get to know our destinations in the most authentic way and meet awesome people with whom we can share experiences and have fun!

"People don't take trips. Trips take people"

PHILOSOPHY

With everything you do, you should respect and value others. I feel that any experience that is memorable and special must include other people. The greatest gift is to learn from other people and travelling is also a fun way to get prejudices out of the way.

Live and let live.
"Dumm ist der, der Dummes tut"
