CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

...find out yourself...the way I am depends on the way you are. Besides, I distrust verbal self descriptions

PHILOSOPHY

everyone hides something good, every place some beautiful pearl; If you search for it, you'll not find it; look out and you'll see it

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

member since 2007, several experiences, all were marvellous. For me, welcoming someone in ones home is something precious, hence I can assure no hidden second interests from my side.

Interests

Well, travelling, of course, basically this one of the reasons why I bother to earn money, so that I can take off one day again; listening to and making music, sports, mountains, sailing, paragliding, reading.

Teach, Learn, Share
