CURRENT MISSION

Currently I am spending a year in Temuco in the south of Chile

ABOUT ME

I am a 19-year old guy from the south of Germany and I have just finished school earlier this year. At the moment I'm spending one year as a Voluntary in the South of Chile.
I live in Temuco where I work in a organization called Departamento de Acción social (DAS). In the organization I have various functions. E.g. I am working in a project that tries to strengthen the tourism in the rural areas of Chile, and in this way improves the standard of living of the native People. Also I work in the fields of forestry and environment protection

PHILOSOPHY

to say it with the words of one of my favorite Reggae artists Patrice :
"everyday is good because of being alive"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently i am spending a year in Chile where I life with a guest family. Therefor i am not able to host any people. Once I am back in Germany and I have my own couch i would love to share it with other surfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

As I am a new member of the couch surfing community I do not have any experiences but I hope to meet a lot of interesting and friendly people, travel and discover amazing places and just have some fun.

Interests

In my spare time I like to practice all kinds of sport that can be done in the mountains such as climbing, skiing snowboarding, trekking, mountainbiking ...
As I have a great interest in nature, you can say i like everything that is done outside.Be it discovering the amazing nature of a country by hiking trough a park or just enjoying some refreshing Beers and good music with friends at a nearby lakeside
Of course , like all of the couch surfers I love to travel, discover the World, meet new interesting people and learn about other cultures.
