About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy life and to learn from people's stories.

PHILOSOPHY

“Nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has come.” ― Victor Hugo

ABOUT ME

Outgoing, young design professional with an interest in international travel and foreign cultures. Always keen to explore the unknown. Whether it's art & design, delicious foods & coffee, great bars, an exciting nightlife or the open plains in a quite landscape. I guess the occasional walk on a beautiful beach is ok too.

I consider myself an open-minded, social and straight forward traveler with good manners of the kind that I would expect myself when hosting others. Now based back in Hannover and Halle, Germany. Lived and worked in Melbourne, Australia for some odd years. Studied in Sweden for a couple of semesters and always likely to be found on the move. Has traveled this great world a fair bit.

Currently with one foot in the working force but at the same time on the finishing line of his Masters degree. Whenever I have time, I am happy to host you!

Amazing journeys are there to continue, when the crazies are the only sane.

Please be advised that I am not hotel for travelers with the only intention of having a free place to stay. My apartments are open for people that I feel like meeting. So for all of you who feel addressed, you know who you are.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's nice to meet new people while traveling. Why not sharing your dinner with a stranger. If I don't have time to travel, I like to listen to other peoples travel stories/adventures and I am happy show them in what a beautiful city I live in!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Woke up on a pretty beach, went for a for delicious coffee and caught some of the best waves afterwards. Damn simple, right!?

What I Can Share with Hosts

Coffe talk!
German lessons perhaps..
Kite-Surfing-Lessons (Although my gear is still back in Australia!)
I am a pretty hands-on person and I can fix a lot of stuff!
Having worked in a joinery for a year I am a pro with all electric hand tools and stationary tools in regards to wood processing. Professionally I have done a lot of prototyping, using a large range of materials (metal, I can weld quite nicely, plastics, clay, wood, felt etc.)
