About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploring South America

ABOUT ME

After finishing school in 2006, I traveled across North America, hitchhiking and couchsurfing my way from sea to shiny sea. After a brief gig back home in Germany to raise some travel funds, I explored a bit of Indonesia and lived in Melbourne, Australia for 6 months. All of these were beautiful experiences.
For the past 3 years, I've been living and studying in Berlin - my favorite city in the world.
I'd consider myself as very tolerant and open-minded, also very spontaneous and adventure-seeking. I'm not hard to get along with.

PHILOSOPHY

We shall not cease from exploration
And at the end of all our exploring
We'll be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed in almost 2 dozen cities when I traveled from New York to Los Angeles during 2006/2007 and met some of the most fabulous people, had some of my most memorable experiences and made some of my dearest friends. I'd choose couchsurfing over a hostel any day.

Music, Movies, and Books

From HipHop over Metalcore to Drum & Bass, I'll be down with almost anything - as long as it's well done. I played the drums for several metalcore and punk bands, and I'm always looking for new discoveries.
Movies: Pan's labyrinth was wicked
Books: For some reason, I prefer non-fiction

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One evening in Los Angeles, I paddled out with my surf board. It was a beautiful sunset, and the sea was rather calm, although there were some nice sets. Suddenly, I saw a tin plowing through the water, then several more...freakin dolphins. When I took the next wave, a dolphin jumped through the water right next to me. Surfing with dolphins during sunset in LA...one of the most perfect moments in my life.
