About Me

Hey guys, my name is Patrick and I work in PR for a media company in Munich, Germany. I travelled through South East Asia for a couple of months in 2017. Returning to Germany I decided to show the same generosity I received over there to guests coming to my homecountry. I am passionate about hiking and nature, love sports and especially football as much as going to pubs, clubs and cinemas. I am an outgoing, talkative person, yet at the same time organized, reliable and respectful. I used to study politics, history and English, but am now happy to work in the film/media industry. Because of my demanding job, I cannot spend as much time with my guests as I used to, but I am happy to give recommendations and support you when you are in the city. I hope to make guests feel like in a little, clean hotel. It is a small apartment, so unluckily all I can offer is the shared double bed. Sometimes I get complaints upon arrival on that, but it has always been openly communicated on my profile, so no reason to complain if you read properly. I know Munich has become excessively expensive, and I remember well, when I had to travel on a shoestring budget, so I think it is good to help out. I am respectful to any religion, race or gender; if I don't reply it is mostly because I am lacking time and am busy with my job, not because of your individual request. As CS has been criticized recently for being misused as a dating platform, let me be outspoken. I am tolerant towards any sexual identity, though I am straight. There are no expectations/intentions from my side but hosting, but I am liberal, so female guests can consider me as part of the house inventory ;)

Feel free to text me if you visit the pearl of Bavaria :)
