It's rather about us :)

We are a couple from Cologne, Germany traveling the world. We met 10 years ago during our study in the Netherlands. Our biggest passion is traveling. After uni we went on a 6 months trip in Asia. After that we started working for 8 years with the ultimate goal to travel the world.

Currently we are on the road for 18 months. After South America and Africa we are now on our way east to Asia...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

During our travels we stayed at a lot of Airbnbs and always enjoyed our stay the most when sharing the place with the host(s).

For us traveling is about experiencing other cultures. In the course of our journey meeting new local people is a essential part of it. Being guests and hosting other travelers we are looking forward to meet interesting people and creating and sharing new memories and experiences.
