Hi everyone!

I'm a thoughtful, passionate photographer and open-minded ambivert from Stuttgart, Germany. My girlfriend and travel partner Dani is a warm-hearted, creative and always smiling 3D-artist and illustrator from Bulgaria. We're both freshly graduated and spent the first three months of freedom from Uni traveling throughout Southeast Asia.

Being half German and American, but not really feeling like either one of both sides, I find it especially interesting to meet people with diverse backgrounds.
I love photography and do crazy things to get the best possible photo. I'm from Germany, so I don't have any sense of humor (there you go: a bit sarcasm though). Not as punctual as a German. A night owl. A creative sort. Sometimes clumsy and forgetful. Environmentally friendly and a healthy eater - at least I try to.

More of a backpacker than a tourist. Overall I'd say I'm friendly, respectful and very open to all cultures.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

Seeing new sights is only half of what traveling is all about. The other half is everything related to the fellow humans you meet and the friends you make on your way.

Job: I was a subscription agent for german nature protection... talked to thousands of people in 2 months

Insegna, impara, condividi

You can learn something new from everyone you meet.
Also, you can't love what you don't know. That's why I'm curious, open-minded, and don't judge people over superficial things

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

The feeling of spending your time the best way possible - at least that's what I feel when couchsurfing.
Philosophical / sober / drunk / funny / inappropriate / deep conversations :)
