About Me

Traveling the world on my motorcycle since July 2023. Started in Canada, crossed the USA and Mexico and went on and besides the Panamericana all the way down to Ushuaia and back up the east coast to the amazon. Shipped the Bike from Chile to Malaysia. In the meantime visited Canada again and the Philippines. As the bike reached Malaysia I rode through Thailand, Cambodia, Laos and then 10000 km through China including Tibet and Xingjang, the Silkroad and the Karaoram Highway into Pakistan. Since November I spend the Winter in India and Sri Lanka. Next step of my journey is shipping the bike to Dubai in April, the explore the Emirates, Oman, Saudi and Kuwait with Iraq on my way to Turkey and back home to Europe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Don`t lie: Budget is limited, and in high cost countries like Dubai I simply cannot afford Hotel stays. But that off course isn`t all. I love to meet likeminded people all over the world and share stories, learn about their life and culture and just spend quality time - that's what it`s all about, isn't it?
