Travelling
Description
I used to work a boring office job, but I left that all behind to live a more interesting life full of nature and travel. During the summer months you can find me working in one of America's national parks, but in the winter months you can find me traveling all over the world on a tight budget.

In my free time I love to play music, and am always looking for other musicians to perform with. But aside from music, I also love to read, hike, and practice German.

While I am open to all possibilities, I am most interested in finding somewhere I can practice speaking German and help others practice their English.

Beate and Andreas were great hosts, and I had a wonderful time getting to know them, their family, and their friends during the month I spent there, and wouldn't hesitate to visit again. Things in the Wendland are relaxing, but we also had plenty of exciting nights playing games, going to concerts, and partying. It was a great mix of experiences… read more

Jimmy was a great guest. He was diligent and motivated, and we could always rely on him to complete all tasks properly or to ask questions if something was unclear. He was always friendly, spent many hours playing board games with the children, and was open to all the activities we suggested to him. We had many interesting conversations and… read more

I had an excellent time staying in Cottbus with Sarah and Willy. They are both very caring and generous people who did a great job sharing German culture with me and always making sure I was comfortable. They also have three wonderful daughters who are great to practice speaking German with if you are a beginner like I am.

I had lots of freedom… read more
