ABOUT ME

Hi, I am Hendrik, originally from Germany and now I live in Seattle and enjoy the Pacific Northwest with all its mountains for skiing, hiking as well as the beaches and lakes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I had my first couchsurfing experience in July 2010 in Boston while participating at a conference. This was an awesome way to get to know the locals and I had a very pleasant time. So I am looking forward to similar experiences at other traveling occasions.

The same time, I am looking forward to visitors here in Seattle, where I can offer an air-bed at a very convenient location at Greenlake. So far I had one guest only staying for two days, and I am looking forward to host more.
