About Me

What I Can Share with Hosts

We have lived in several countries and done volunteer work (mostly on organic farms) in different corners of the world; we can give you tips and tell you stories if you're interested in that.

We're in the process of starting a small intentional community and are always happy to share knowledge and experiences related to communal living.

My partner plays in two punkish bands and can definitely tell you where to go if you're looking to see Berlin's punk scene.

In general, the alternative/underground scene of Berlin is what we're familiar with and can tell you of some interesting places to go to. If it's the typical attractions, best shopping places and currywurst eateries you're looking for, we might not be the best family for you.
