CURRENT MISSION

I can best describe myself as enthusiastic, lively and wanting to get everything out of life. I'm open to people I don't know and always willing to learn from other people and different cultures.

ABOUT ME

When I visit new cities I always want to get surprised by the city, so I try to see it from a local perspective. That's exactly why I signed up for CouchSurfing, by this way you'll see places you'll otherwise never end up.

PHILOSOPHY

Be who you want to be. Never let fear get in the way of your ambitions!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Last summer I couch-surfed and hitchhiked with a friend of mine through the Baltic States, Litauen, Latvia (Riga), Estonia (Tallinn). Afterwards through Scandinavia, Helsinki, Stockholm, Kopenhagen and eventually Hamburg. Along the way we met some extraordinary and amazing people. After that I felt that signing up for Couchsurfing was a great idea! :)

Interests

Sailing, hitch hiking, surfing and kitesurfing, culture, architecture, painting and design in every way: from graphic to product as well as interior and furniture design. I love to photograph in every new city I arrive. The inspiration I find I can use in my work.
