About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Ive been trying to kill long distances, unmanagable heights, awful storms and devastating heat with my bike and tent. I like slow ways of travelling. If you have the time for it, it makes you five times as happy everytime you achieve another goal:)
...but...
These days I am making a break from bike travel or travelling in general and try to see and stay in some places for a longer term, engaging into different projects, often related to irregular migration all over the place.

ABOUT ME

I try hard to be an open-minded person and reduce prejugdements and stereotypes. I am quiet easy to deal with, in case you want to hang out or not, I am curious and always up to discover the unknown:)

PHILOSOPHY

Live a simple and free life full of trust towards the other

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A lot of surfing and hosting in different places over the years, sharing experiences and perspective on life. Trusting in the good of the other, even I dont know him, something nice to practice with CS

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I find couchsurfing to be a great idea: in means of costs, companionship and support wherever you need it. I try to host people whenever I have the chance and help out as much as I can, so whenever I have my own room.

I have met very good and long-term friends through couchsurfing that im still connected to and very thankful for. Couchsurfing also made it possible to see and experience places from the eye of very different local people, which for me is much more interesting than tourism.

Interests

My big passion are the outdoors, especially the mountains and all you can do on them. But cities are great also, concerts, street art, meeting people or just bumming around on the main squares of random cities or in parks, trying to juggle, slackline or make big soap bubbles. I usually need a good mix of urban life and nature..

I find new interests very spontaneously,. I try everthing a bt and never get really good at any certain thing.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to read about social and political science in different parts of the world, always questionning society a bit more. Henry David Thoreau is the man!
If I chose my music, its often Dub, ska or reggae but all kinds of music sound good to me, incuding electro stuff, latino, DrumandBass and French Chanson.
I like movie festivals. They are great to go see movies you might never hear of again...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hard to say...I do amazing things all the time;)

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach languages and share experience of different places and different visions and Ideas. Always eager to learn!

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good time and a few drinks...
