Description

Hello hello ;)
my name is Laurenz and I am from Germany!
I am currently backpacking around…
I have been to South America, the Caribbeans and Europe and currently on a trip through central and South Asia!
What motivates me to travel all these places is that I feel like this is the best way to get the most out of my life.
My philosophy is that I want to make every single day count and create as many memories as possible.
I enjoy seeing beautiful natural sights, historical buildings and eating good food. Also contributing to projects and leaving something good behind is very important!
But for me the most interesting thing about traveling is meeting people from different places all over the world and get a glimpse of what their life looks like.
So you might have guessed it, this is why I created a workaway profile;)
Looking forward to meeting more and more amazing people in whichever places my travels will take me!
