I am Oliver. Born in 1981 I am currently based in Stuttgart, Germany. Consider me open, honest and happy to share time with you. I would describe me as clean, polite and having few bad habits. My friends say I'm a nice person and easy to get along with. I have travelled a lot and am looking for new experiences and fun people.

I am a product manager for a German software company. Talk to me about technology and consider myself a nerd with manners and social skills (is this still a nerd?)

My interest is towards food, raw products, processing, cooking and eating in general. I know how to prepare the perfect omelette and will be happy to prepare it for you. I am interested in all kinds of food. I never fear to try what is served.

My other interests are endurance sports (running, swimming, cycling), photography, technology, art and architecture.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel a lot and love the experiences of shared stories. I always prefer human interaction over stones and sights.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveling across Canada while living in my car, cycled from Stuttgart to Istanbul crossing the Balkans

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to cut an onion without looking at it. All kinds of European foods. I am an active photographer and willing to share whatever I know about it. Would love to learn how to play a guitar. Will sing along while you play your greatest hits.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Many interesting stories, all food that I prepare, knowledge about photography, endless optimism.
