Typical home-work-home guy who had the urge to explore and visit places and learn new cultures after a an adventure-packed solo travel to Japan in 2017.

I very much like to engage in conversations, regardless of whether we agree or not on topics/issues. For me, hearing other people’s perspective helps me to learn, and at times, realize why things are as they are, however illogical it might initially seem to me.

I regularly host because when I’m hosting, I get the feeling that I have also traveled when I learn new things from my guests, and become a little less naive of the different cultures around the world!

Important!!!
I have been getting quite a number of friend requests lately from people I don't know. Please, if you want to ask me something or if you want to stay at my place, you can message me or send a request to stay. I'm not adding anyone to my friends' list unless there've been an interaction between us. Just a gentle reminder that this is not Facebook. :-)

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

l am curious to learn about life in other countries and especially about the culture. It’s fascinating to learn new things from the people themselves and not just reading about it online. Being a traveller myself, I understand sometimes there are budget constraints, and if I can help extend that budget by providing free accommodation, I get the satisfaction of having helped somebody on their journey and hope that maybe, just maybe, they’ll be able to help others and give back to the CS community. But ultimately, I just needed a reason to clean my apartment and accepting guests forces me to tidy my place up. Not that bad of a deal, right? ;-)

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Gone to Japan with a backpack and a round trip plane ticket without any pre-booked accommodation. Whichever place I found myself in when the sun sets, that’s where I spent the night. How’s that for an adventure? ;-)

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Stories about my adventures as well as sharing my culture. I can also cook, so if you'd allow me, I'll cook for you one dish that's considered the national dish of the Philippines - adobo.
