About Me

CURRENT MISSION

starting my business

ABOUT ME

Hi, my name is jakob - but you can also call me jack or jake like friends do or whatever you can invent. I also listen on dude:-) I worked at an engineering company somewhere in the middle of Germany but was soon bored of work and the way too normal life in germany. However, I was lucky to have 30 days of holidays each year which I spended entirely with travelling. I cannot think of anything better to spend my money for. Who needs a big plasma TV when you can have the greatest experiences with other people all around the world?! I am a real travel addict I would say. I hope that with couchsurfing I can have just a little bit the feeling of travelling at home:-)

Now i am lucky to have moved together with the 4 greatest flatmates ever into our house in bondi junction in sydney. We are always happy to have someone on our couch!

PHILOSOPHY

Be honest and most importantly: be honest to yourself - do what you really want to do in life and do it right!
