About Me

--- Normally always happy to receive surfers but I am currently traveling, so you'll have to wait a bit for me to be back ;) ---

I'm a 34 year old German guy whose been working as a teacher in Berlin for the last few years who needed a break. I love my job and I adore my city but it was time for a change of pace so now I am currently on a sabbatical traveling North/Central/South America with my boyfriend to see the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

That question is pretty obvious: Because it's just so much fun! There have been times where I haven't used couchsurfing too much because of little time or quite often because my home didn't allow me to host. But whenever I did - and after all these years it's been quite a few times - it has nearly always been an enriching and positive experience! People on here are kind, interesting, fun, and I'm happy about every single one I have met thanks to the website, be it surfing or hosting.

Teach, Learn, Share

to teach... well, anyone who wants to learn German or possibly practice his or her Portuguese is welcome. otherwise... maybe a quick course in drawing portraits?
to learn... well, for instance I'm always happy about people showing me vegan recipes or teaching me a word or two in their language. Other than that, I'm happy about whatever you might have to offer!
