About Me

My girlfriend and me quit our jobs to see the world and travel on our motorbikes.

Currently we were traveling New Zealand, but decided to come over to Australia for a couple of weeks, without the bikes.

Started motorcycling in 2010 and this is my first travel-season on a bike. I'm fascinated by the direct contact to the people and your environment, while you ride.

I would like to see the real life at travel destinations, not just the tourist spots.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think couch surfing is a great way to visit a place and make some friends, or at least get fast in touch with the local culture. And of course it's a less expensive way of travelling.

My hometown Potsdam is a fabulous place, with a lot of european architecture and history. I'm maybe not a perfect historian guide, but i think I can guide you through the sans souci parkt and nice student night life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Riding a motorcycle all along 90 mile beach (NZ)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm good with computers and practical things. I'm not sure this is something you can teach during a stay, but if you need some help with your travel blog or some advice for your website or so on, feel free to ask me.

I really would love to learn playing guitar. Music is connecting people and it would be great to take out a guitar on the beach and play some nice tunes. Yeah, sounds like a poor cliché, but so what.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm quite good at baking some nice fresh bread and making pizzas.

My girlfriend and me are always happy to share photo and report of nice motorcycle tracks from Europe or New Zealand. Of course we love to hear your recommendations.
