About Me

I'm a spontaneous, outgoing guy with a few cooking skills I'm eager to show anyone who is kind enough to host me in exchange ;) also, I got my traveling guitar with me at almost any given moment, so every camp fire will be spiced up with tunes (if I'm not too much under the influence of, let's say... alcohol)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet new and interesting people, so I'd host everybody who seems to be new and interesting and, obviously, I'd love to be hosted by the same kind of people ;) This world (which is the only one we know so far...) is beautiful and best to be explored with people who know the place! That's why I prefer Couchsurfing over meeting people in hostels (which is also pretty awesome, but I guess the real experience is to get to know places with locals).

Interests

Meeting fun people, outdoor sports mostly, like sailing, snowboarding, skiing, trekking, a bit climbing and for a few days now kitesurfing and wake boarding. Oh, and I'm a musician (my band's called AIRTRAIN if you like to check us out on Facebook ;) )

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: ALL Star Wars (yes, I also like the new ones...), Lord of the Rings, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Burn After Reading and other funny stuff
Books: Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy (yes, the movie is also hilarious, but misses A LOT of funny details from the 6(!) books)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going abroad with no plan at all... and still having the time of my life! Oh and skydiving, skydiving was pretty radical for me ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I'm in fact a teacher, so everybody who does make contact will be taught! ;)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Well, I'm an easy going guy, so what I WON'T offer hosts is nagging because I have to sleep on the floor, don't have my own bathroom, don't get the wifi code, you get the picture... What I CAN offer is a little cooking (swiss traditional if requested... and if I find the ingredients in your country, or a hangover breakfast ;) ), I could teach you guitar basics, or if you're a pro already we could throw an awesome jam session! (I got my travel guitar with me most of the time). Basically I'd like to think that I can offer a good time and we can exchange traveling experience and stuff!
