About Me

ABOUT ME

"I wanted movement and not a calm course of existence, I wanted excitement and danger and the chance to sacrifice myself for my love. I felt in myself a superabundance of energy which found no outlet in our quiet life." - Leo Tolstoi

Sold everything I owned in Germany and started traveling the world a month ago in Alaska. Made my way to Central America now and can’t wait to see every part of the world and meet amazing people.

PHILOSOPHY

"You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You're on your own, and you know what you know. And you are the guy who'll decide where to go." - Dr. Seuss

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Mostly surfing at the moment, but whenever I settle down somewhere I'll be happy to host as much as possible.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I only couchsurfed a couple of times and never hosted, but I met the most interesting and awesome people, heard the craziest stories, saw beautiful houses, had the craziest hikes and the best time.
