  • Description

    Hi! 🙋‍♂️ And welcome to my profile :)

    (just) Two very important things at the beginning, before you keep on reading:

    ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

    Nr.1️⃣
    UNFORTUNATELY ANOTHER ADJUSTMENT TO MY PROFILE DUE TO SEVERAL CONFUSED VOLUNTEERS MIXING UP THIS SITE WITH SOCIAL MEDIA:
    PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO CHECK MY ENTIRE PROFILE. THEN I WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER YOUR MESSAGE IMMEDIATELY (USUALLY WITHIN A FEW HOURS!).


    Nr.2️⃣
    !!!
    Attention - currently not available (I am in permanent employment)
    !!!

    ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

    🙇‍♂️Okay - now we can start! :)

    Hey there! 🤙
    My name is Nils and I travelled the world for two years by working on cruise ships. Unfortunately this is not the most sustainable way to travel and so I decided not to go back again and to explore the world on my own. I love the nature and meeting new people and like to help people in all different situations in their lifes.

    For more Infos about me check my Feedbacks here and references on Couchsurfing, which I prefer while I don’t stay with hosts on Workaway:

    https://www.couchsurfing.com/users/2018244238?utm_campaign=profile_share&utm_source=couchsurfing-ios

    Happy to get in contact,
    BUT!:

    Potential hosts:
    Please, if you are having trouble getting your life and/or business under control, let me know beforehand and open yourself up to accepting my help. I don't want to go back to a place of disarray where you can't even accept my help and suggestions. I can tackle things and get things moving with you, but you have to be open to it!
    Don't expect miracles from me, and certainly don't expect me to turn shit into gold (I did so in the past working for big companies and getting well payed for it, so no need to do it again and even for free! ;)).
    Let's be honest with each other! Don't be surprised if your mended hoe breaks for the third time when I use it to till the garden bed ;)

    Conspiracy theories:
    If you are one of these guys who think moon landing was a fake, the earth is a disc, 9/11 was done the US, Bill Gates is the evil, somebody is spraying chemtrails to poison us or change the weather, vaccinations where made to do something bad, there is reptiloids among us, the 5G conspiracy is true or you are part of QAnon and/or think corona was just fake…



    …please tell me in advance and I’ll wear my aluminium hat!



    Oh please... don't write that your house is well connected and there are bikes to explore the area and then the bus stop is several kilometres away and the bikes are in such a bad condition that I have to finish an engineering degree to fix them.
    When I come to you, you can expect someone who will step on the gas with you and support you in all your upcoming projects.
    But I also expect reasonable accommodation, free time and cultural exchange from you. I would like to get to know you and/or your area and not just be used as free labour.

    I've met some amazing people during this adventure (the best ones actually on couchsurfing and hitchhiking) and unfortunately some not so good ones. If you're afraid you're on the dark side, we shouldn't be in contact, because I usually left these places after a very short time and very few of these hosts can still be found on Workaway...!

    Don’t think I am crazy, extremely frustrated or have super high expectations, I only had some bad hosts in the past and want to avoid a similar situation (like sleeping without air mattress and sleeping bag in a small tent, bed bugs, animals eating my clothes and shitting/peeing in living areas / kitchen(!))

    If this all sounds suitable for you, please contact me! :)

    Still unsure?
    Maybe this helps:

    Other travelers:
    PLEASE! DON‘T SEND ME A FRIEND REQUEST, WITHOUT ANY MESSAGE, WHEN WE NEVER MET BEFORE, NOT HAVING THE SAME PLANS OF TRAVELS OR YOU DON‘T WANT TO HAVE ANY INFOS ABOUT DESTINATIONS I HAVE BEEN TO!
    THIS IS NOT ABOUT HAVING MOST FRIENDS OR ANYTHING LIKE THIS.. GRAZIE :)


    I try to live in the here and now - so you don't need to ask me about any social media accounts or anything like that.

    For me, there are no old or young people, no beautiful or ugly people - there are only good and bad people. I hope you are on the good side.

    What counts for me is not how much you have in your bank account or how many trophies you have in your wardrobe.
