Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I'm on CS to get in touch with hosts from every country. I would appreciate it if I can spend much time with my host,cause otherwise it feels just like staying at someone's place for free without any social aspect.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music is my passion. There are a lot of music-genres I listen to,so just ask me. I'm sure we'll find a common artist or genre we both like ;)
One Amazing Thing I've Done
-climbing at the top of "Ol Doniyo Lengai" (Tanzania) which is the holy mountain of the Massai and an active volcano - trekking in northern Pakistan-areas -Jungle Tour in Tanzania -climbing a few volcanoes in Indonesia - living & working on a yacht in the Philippines -Walking the Laugavegurinn trail in Iceland ( over the top of the well known volcano Eyjafjallajökull) -Whale-whatching in Husavik/Island
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm willing to share all of my traveler-and life-experiences if someone's interested in it. I would describe myself as a good trip-organizer & manager,so if you're planning a trip,let me know ;)
What I Can Share With Hosts
Sharing loads of travel experiences from 50 countries. Having a good talk about traveling (on a budget), cultural differences and similarities, political issues and so on :)
My Interests
I prefer doing things independently. That doesn't mean that I'm a lone Wulf or prefer traveling solo. I just wanna explore everything in my own way, means I don't wanna join guided tours Trekking, mountain hiking, snorkeling, diving, jungle tours, listening to music, eat local food, relaxing, laughing. Almost everything what raises my adrenalin-level ;)
