ABOUT ME

I'm 24 years old and an independent photographer in Mannheim.

Traveling has always been part of my life and I got the opportunities to live for one year in the US where I went to highschool and also to volunteer in Namibia for almost a year. Those stays adding to all kind of journeys pretty much taught me some of the most important things in life so far.
I want to see so much more from the world and almost all of my saved money and freetime goes into a journey, sometimes they're bigger, sometimes they're only short trips. But they are all unique and I'm thankful for every single one of them. Therefore I'm really looking forward to the ones to come and I am very excited to meet new people being through someone visiting me or traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

If you want to go fast, go alone.
If you want to go far, go together.

(African Proverb)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is not possible to really get to know a place without getting to know the people that live there. It is like a window into the soul from a country. I want to learn about the countries I travel to and CS is the best way to do that.
Also I want to give that back to the people visiting my place, because I know how important it is to really give people an insight of the culture when they visit.
