About Me

Hola Mallorca and hello Spain, this is Olli, a travel journalist from Cologne in Germany. I'm currently in Guinea Bissau, a great country with 88 Atlantic islands in West Africa. I've been a member of Couchsurfing for 13 years and have met many great people around the world and I'm still in friendly contact with some of them. On 16th of June I'm coming to Mallorca again and would be very happy if I could get accommodation with some nice Mallorcans.

I was last on this great island from June to 31 December 2020 and left my ancient Africa Twin (motorbike) there. That's also one of the reasons why I'm now coming back to the largest Balearic island.

Who has a place for me? I'm frugal, a non-smoker and a frequent traveller with a very cosmopolitan attitude.

Maybe I can do something for you, I can optimise or create websites, I can write articles or help with internet research and the like.

I look forward to reading from you. Here are a few examples of what I do:

A cause of my job and a cause private reasons I was travelling a lot during my life ... I love travelling, it's not a job, it's my passion :)! And I love to drive bicycles and motorbikes. All kind of sports can touch my heart, haha .. but in most am not really good. Besides I'm nonsmoker and speak English and French fluently, try to improve my lousy Spanish, ggg ;) ... So ... see you soon one day, hmm?

Cheers,

Olli

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm travelling a lot. And mostly I prefer CS hosts as places 2 stay. It's fantastic to get to know open minded and very friendly peoples from a foreign town or a foreign country by CS! The hosts know much more about clubs, local cultural offers and events than the hotel employees. I am very happy about everybody asks for a couch in my own town, I can give back something from the great moments at many CS places ...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

CS is a great thing! After one year I can judge about the system and the CS-peoples behavoir: perfect, great, open minded! In 2010 I lost my sweet (crazy) mobile home in Greece during a shooting and now I can continue my travelling a cause CS! THANKS a lot for this fantastic organisation. I disclose my secret: CS is my favorite site in the www! I got to know by CS many open minded and nice peoples. I try to travel by CS only. Couchsurfing: the most important invention after car, telephone and internet ... ;)))
