I want to explore the world and meet lots of new people and their accompanying world views. I belief a life consists of experiences, the more experiences the more a life sincerely lived. I want to be able to look back on my life with fondness and satisfaction.

In my daily life I try to be honest and kind towards my environment and the people in it.
I absolutely love nature and her never ending beauty, but I also definitely enjoy the beauty of a rich cultural city.

Furthermore I really like to read and write, enjoy riding my board, playing my guitar, climbing and creating useful and pretty things out of wood.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Solidarity in travelling the world. And learning from each other. Once I live on my own I'm certain to return the favor and host people myself.

4. A Confession by Leo Tolstoy

Regarding music, I listen to about everything that has a mellow vibe to it.

I think everyone's top 3 here include Into The Wild and with me that's no different.
Other favorites are probably Gandhi, Aladdin and Forrest Gump.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Backpacking alone in Guinea while barely speaking the language with little cash. It was a wonderful adventure.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to backflip

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm always up for some in-depth conversations on many topics. I'll happily teach you some acrobatics and since I'm a licensed woodworker I'd gladly look into your jamming drawer or creaky cabinet.
