Overview
About Me
I love to meet new people and to try new things and I try to grab any possibility life offers me to do so. I like doing sports like Capoeira, running or climbing. An obsession of me are bicycles. I love to ride them and to work on them. So if you come to stay then don't be surprised to find one to three bikes standing around. If they are all working I'd be happy to lend you one to explore the city on a more flexible way.
Whenever possible, I try to travel. It does not matter for me if I am doing it by bike, backpack or hitchhiking, I love the feeling to be actively travelling. This is also a topic I like to talk and hear about.
Another important thing for me is food. Cooking and eating are some of my favourite social events. I am vegetarian and love to cook this way, but I try to be as vegan if possible.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I want to get in contact with people, culture, lifestyle and the world! I try to give you an opportunity to get another part for your world-mosaik and I also want to collect many parts of mine with couchsurfing.
I had very interesting stays to Vienna, Paris, Grenoble and some other places where I met some of the most friendly persons I could have imagined.
Thus, couchsurfing for me a very personal, interesting and unique way of travelling. I think a lot of the openess, spontanity and humanity communicated by CS is missing in this world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The jump. This jump you do to start something awesome.
If you don't know what I mean it feels like one of this:
- Grabbing your backpack to go on a journey
- When your feet lose touch to the ground during the first jump into the blue sea
- Closing your carabine before going up/down a wall
- Feeling the take-off of your plane
- The click-in into the pedals at the start of a long bike trip
- Being called by the Berimbau to play in an energized roda
- Sinking into the deep ocean and seeing the world becoming bubbles
