Personal Description

From April 2004 till February 2008 I have make a motorcycle-trip around the world. It was a great time.
From 2001 to 2004 I'm every summer travel guide in Lapland. This was a amazing job.
I like the live and I´m happy about every new day. I´m a easygoing guy. I love a live without any problems.
Desde el abril del 2004 para el febrero del 2008 yo he viajado alrededor del mundo con mi moto. Este un tiempo muito bom.
Desde el 2001 al 2004 fui guia para Laponia durante los meses de verano. Este fue un trabajo increible.
Me gusta vivir la vida a lo maximo, y tomo cada dia con optimismo. Soy una persona calmada, encanto un vida sin problemas.
Vom April 2004 bis zum Februar 2008 war ich mit meinem Motorrad auf eine Reise um die Welt. Das war eine gigantische Zeit.
Von 2001 bis 2004 hatte ich jeden Sommer in Lappland als Guide gearbeitet. Das war eine unbeschreibliche Arbeit.
Ich mag das Leben und ich bin glücklich über jeden neuen Tag. Eigentlich bin ich ein ruhiger Typ. Ich liebe ein Leben ohne Probleme.

What do these numbers mean?

This summary is not a replacement for reading references; it's a quick summary to help you get started. At a glance, you can see how many references a member has, and how many of them are positive, neutral, and negative.

In the second line, you'll see how many references came from people who hosted this member, surfed with them, and traveled with them. These numbers won't always add up to the total: some references are not categorized, and some may be categorized as more than one thing.

When viewing this summary, don't jump to conclusions! Things that are negative for one person may be positive for another, and vice versa. It's important to read references carefully and evaluate what that information means to you.

I was sitting the first time in a kayak when I met Olli. He offered spontaneously to help me and gave me some advices. Although I met him just once, I feel like knowing something about him, because he has made a lot of experience on his travel and is very open to tell about it. I think he is a “human, well-experienced and reliable travel book”… He was the one who explained me the idea of CS the first time. Since then I couldn`t forget the idea, so that I had to open my own profile. Thanks for letting me know about CS!

What can I say....Olli & Polyana are the very best! Not sure how to say thank you to someone that made my dream come to reality. The whole time we were riding in the Black Forest I had to pinch myself to make sure it was really happening. My only regret is that we were not able to spend more time with them. They are both gentle, lovely souls....so easy to be with....& yes Polyana the dinner was delicious! I do hope some day I might be able to repay your kindness. Next time in the States you'll have wheels!!

Oliver is a really fun guy up for any paddling adventure (even if it was blown away by heaving winds in the end). Hope to see you round in August in better conditions.

My CS host had to leave town unexpectedly and I met up with Olli aka "Ente" to have a beer, or two. He guided me around the Schwenninger Moos, the old town and had a BBQ with some of his friends. We ended up hanging for a few days, visiting the Hirsch Brewery for a drink and dinner. Olli was a major contributer to me having an unforgettable visit to the Black Forest. Olli made a deal with me to reciprocate with a visit to Aspen. I look forward to counter-host him, and show him our paragliding sites. Olli is a great dude to hang out with! Well travelled, lots going on: Kayak's mbikes, fun to drink delicious crafted German beers with. Get the paragliding going bro! Thank you for a great time.

Oliver and Polyana are the ideal host couple :)
They not only hosted and fed us, but they took time to show us around, we spend a wonderful day on the Bodensee, visited Germany's tallest waterfall in Triberg, and also Europe's biggest waterfall, Rheinfall.
They also introduced us to their friends, Karo and Dirk, who took Mark on a mountain biking trip and then joined us along the Danube for the weekend.
We really enjoyed our time in Villingen and we hope to see them again soon, maybe in Brasil?

Oliver and Polyana are a lovely couple in whose home I could really feel like home for a few days...Despite being busy with work Oliver had time to share some great stories about motorcycles, Brazil, traveling around (half of ) the world, recommend what to see around and even show a wonderful local restaurant in the middle of black forest... Thanks for everything!

Oliver and Polyana, It seems impossible that a short time ago we were strangers. Now, we feel like we are long time friends. We thank you for your hospitality and friendship. We had a wonderful time with you.
Thank you, see you soon,
Barbie & Fred
