I do not really identify with my name or the place I was born in.

Nevertheless people call me Jan.

My parents used to take me to a few places around the world and early on I was able to see the diversity of our planet.

The moment I am writing this text my main occupation is to learn about the life that was given to me and the possibility that comes with it. I want to explore the inner world through the help of what is outside.

I am not always deeply thinking about everything :D

I enjoy the pleasures of life very much and try to be a good companion for the people around me.

My wife was born in Japan and we met on an island called Tasmania.

Right now I am able to enjoy the great gift of being in my wife’s home country which opens up a whole new universe for me.

I am interested in Budo sports and practice Aikido for 2 years.

Understanding and appreciating nature is something that makes me happy and gives me a feeling of contentment.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Buying a night in a hotel does not give me the experience that I would get on Couchsurfing.

I suppose life is sometimes about getting out of your comfort zone and especially about making friendships. Couchsurfing gives the opportunity for that.
