Hi, my name is Luca and I am looking forward meeting you! 🙌🏼💯
Grown up in Germany, I traveled in my younger years first Europe and in 2018 I was first alone in Asia. 6 months backpacking, an insanely beautiful time!
I learned a lot about myself and the different cultures, the main reason why I travel.
Second trip during Covid in Africa, I travelled 11 months from Egypt to South Africa together with a friend. Even got vaccinated in South Africa.
Third trip back to Asia, explored different countries and some other places in countries I've been before.

NEXT ADVENTURE AUSTRALIA!
Got my visa at the last minute (was almost too old 👀) – looking forward to cultural exchange!

Friends would describe me as adventurous, spontaneous and very polite.

I don't drink alcohol and I don't smoke - don't mind you do. 😊

Last but not least I would like to say that I am a very sociable and funny person! 🙌🏽

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

1. Cultural exchange
2. New friends
3. experience something together / exchange ideas
4. recommendations about the area

Besides all the above: A great time together! 💯

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I've had a lot of great experiences and have a lot to share from my travels. Besides the time in Asia in 2018, I crossed the African continent from Egypt to South Africa in 2021, climbed to the top of Kilimanjaro, saw Victoria Falls, countless safaris and more sand than you can imagine. 11 month in total by car.

Of course, I was also allowed to make humanly insanely beautiful experiences and can not limit myself here to one.
In general, it is the give and take and the warmth of the people.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I'm a German teacher - could def. teach you my language or help you with something in your house, preparing food etc.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I am very happy to share my experiences and hope for common experiences/exchanges, during my stay or trip.

I like to cook for us, would not describe myself as a top chef, but so far friends ate up hopefully not only because of politeness and hunger haha. You probably just need to re-salt as I tend to use less salt.

I'm also happy to do sports together with you, I have resistance bands in my backpack that we can do something with (I'm also a licensed fitness instructor & personal trainer (not in really good shape though due to my travel)).

Since I also teach German as a foreign and second language, I could teach you
