CURRENT MISSION

Making the most out of my 5 months break from paid work

ABOUT ME

I'm a 33 year old software developer who's lucky to have gotten a job offer well in advance and I took the opportunity to take 5 months off.

Having lived half of my life in Germany and the other half in Canada, I've also seen a good part of the world travelling. And the more I travel, the less interested I become in sightseeing and more interested in meeting locals.

I am generally a calm person and like to talk to people to get to know them. But I also love to say yes to any crazy proposition that makes me discover something new. (As long as it doesn't kill me.)

PHILOSOPHY

Try anything at least once.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Heard good things about couchsurfing in the past, then started travelling with three friends two weeks ago and had my first experiences Couchsurfing. Loved the persons I met.

Created this account in case we need to split the group, as it's not always possible to find a place for four. And I'll definitely continue couchsurfing and will try hosting once I'm back home.

Interests

Meeting people; learning anything new, from useful things to completely weird facts; boardgames; puzzles
