We also met at the Unconference in Antwerp in 2007. Thanks to him and the other family members, our movie action was a great success!

Obviously a good careful and relaxed father. I never saw him in a bad mood that weekend and was happy to see him in the frontline debating about the future of BW. Encouraging!

Dorota is for me the best person in the world, but everybody can figure out easily her great heart and her unbelievable intelligence. She has open arms for everyone and is curious about everything.
Great to be the partner of such an jewel of humanity.Dorota is for me the best person in the world, but everybody can figure out easily her great heart and her unbelievable intelligence.

Julia was my guest in 2006 and we had a great time together.

Julia is a very smart and warm hearted young woman. She was my guest together with Dorota, who I later married. Maybe it was Julias good influence? :D
Julia is an amazing person and I hope I will have second chance to meet her soon.

Rosario, her son Galileo and Kjell were our guests in Düsseldorf

I am so sorry that the weather was such bad, that she did not see anything from Düsseldorf. But it was such a great time to see how our babys were playing and to talk and eat together.
I hope we will see us again soon and I wish you and your family all the best in Mexico and in the future.

I know Kjell now a longer time and we worked already in HC together. Now he was our guest in Duesseldorf with his family.

Kjell is a very open minded, warm and intelligent person. He speaks 9 languages fluent and some more basicly.
He has a big heart and a lot of great ideas.
It is a pleasure to see how he takes care for his family and I just like him how he is.
Big hug and all the best for the future.

His little family hosted me in April 2008, when i was in Duesseldorf

Dorota, Stefan and Julia hosted me on short notice and let me enjoy true hospitality, not without sharing their happiness with me...
Interesting talks, great time, a big portion of wisdom, altogether a wonderful stay...from the first second to the last goodbye on the highway!
Meet them and you'll understand!
Thank you so much and definitely see you around...

Met him on BBC 2007, 2008 and at the (un)conference in Antwerp 2008

I don't really know why I haven't wrote him a comment earlier. But you know, good things ripen over time... just like good wine.

On BBC 2007 I just saw the enthusiastic volunteer who tried hard to change some things but kept very diplomatic even though there where tons of problems during the workshops. Than I had the chance to meet the daddy side of him at the (un)conference and I got the impression of an extremely warm hearted person and father who'd do everything for his little family and probably also for his friends. The whole picture did only improve during BBC 2008. What a man, what a father, what an admirable character.

Stefan, I really hope I will see you many, many times more during our HospEx time and travels. I wish you and your family all the best.

He was my first guest almost two years ago together with Dorota

We met almost two years ago when he came for a hiking trip in Dolomites and stayed with my family for one night, and some days ago I visited him and Dorta and Julia in Düsseldorf.
It was great to meet up with them again, chat about many different topics, share some simple hours together and eating a great salad:-)comment date March 13, 2008, 4:36 pm (UTC)

She was our host in summer 2006 on the fram of her parents in the italian alpes.

Cristina is really a great and hospitable person. We enjoyed to stay with her and she helped us even in the rest of the trip a lot. After this we still were in contact and worked together for a while as volunteers in HC. She will be soon our guest and then we can give back a little bit of her hospitality.

We first met at a HC dinner at his place about two (or three?) years ago. From this evolved a great friendship.

He helped me a great deal when I really needed it! Thanks for all the other dinner invitations, intensive talks, smiles, support and your wonderful friendship.

First time she was my guest at "Spargel Dinner" in my flat. Since then we met a lot of times and become friends.

Anja is one of the most active people in Düsseldorfs Hospex community.
It is always a plesure to meet her and to talk with her. She is full of ideas and it is fun and great to spend time with her.

We have been in contact since some years for hospitality exchange volunteering, we met for the first time in Antwerpen for a BW "unconference"

As I was expecting Stefan is a friendly guy with a lot of ideas and conversation it was really a big pleasure to meet him (I was expecting this since a while).

Since we still have many things to talk about I hope we will meet soon (btw Stefan don't seek your light it is in my pocket, let's just hope we will not need it anymore teh next time we will met because smoking is bad for family fathers ;-) )

First we met in Berlin Beach Camp, and recently he hosted me in Dusseldorf.

Stefan is very positive person, great chat companion and definitely wonderful father (I know what I'm saying, I'm Julia's uncle;)
He's always willing to help, even if it costs his precious time. How's our little Julia Stefan? Best wishes to all the family!!! See you.

Matthias was the founder of the local Hospex Group in Düsseldorf.

He was one of the first I met in the Hospex World and he is one reason why I became volunteer. Matthias is one of the most idealistic and active hospex fans I ever met. I learned so much from him and we had a lit of fun together on several partys, meetings and events. He becomes a good friend and I am happy that we met each other in 2005. If you visit him in Hamburg and you make a stopover in Düsseldorf first, do not forget to bring him a bottle of Uerige, or Schuhmachers ALT :)

We met in many places, and I was his guest one night in Dusseldorf when I was on my way to Freiburg.

We had a good jam together at the Berlin Beach Camp 2005, with Stefan singing and playing guitar. He's a good host and I'm happy to see he's a BeWelcome volunteer.

later I met Kaspar on meetings again and hsoted him for one night. But our virtual ways are crossing quiet often, cause we both are very active in hospex networks.
Kaspar is smart, but relaxed guy and you can have a lot of fun with him.
Hope to see you soon again, somewhere in this village called world.

Spending time with Stefan is definitely not wasted time. Superb personality. Great for for having conversation. I especially enjoyed our time talking after the volunteer workshop in Warszawa about HC and BW. Very relaxed and easy-going and friendly. Always a pleasure to meet him.

I will never forget how floh danced while I was singing the hospitality funk in berlin :)

Yes we had a lot of fun and a lot of hugs together, but we had good and long talks, too.

Hospex meetings without floh are like soup without salt :)

See you soon somewhere on this planet.

Met him first time for dinner at my place, but the again and again and again.

Robert is one of the last true travelleres. He is addicted to hitchhicke and hike to whereever the wind blows him. But in the time when he is not travelling you can have a great time in Düsseldorf with him.
You can make music and sing great songs, or just have deep conversation. If you want you can talk withim about the greatest bullshit, or find together the formula of life. Great to know you! Rock´n Roll!!

He hosted me quite a few times in Düsseldorf.

Stefan is a wonderful human being. Talk with him for just a few minutes, and you discover a warm, gentle friend. He is always willing to offer his help, which I cannot begin to repay after finding myself stranded to a degree at his place awaiting news of my family and home after a hurricane flooded New Orleans, my home. Part HCPF, part volunteer, part super host, part so much more... thank you Stefan for being you.

Kurt is my VIP guest. First he crashed in my place, then he becomes my VIP guest in 2005 and since then here is always a couch for him whenever he needs a place. I really love to have Kurt as guest and now I think there is even more then host/guest relationship. He has a open mind and warm heart and I have to recommend everyone to meet him.

We met on several occassions (Berlin, Nijmegen) and I finally had the pleasure of staying at his place in Düsseldorf

Stefan is one of the most relaxed hosts I ever met (but maybe that's because he was tired from climbing all the hills in Süd Tirol !).
It was nice of him to host me after just arriving back from holiday himself, and he makes good conversation. An extra bonus is that you'll never sleep alone at night, as Stefan's cat will keep you company. Thanks Stefan, and looking forward to hosting you and Dorkau anytime in Brussels.

Stefan and Dorota hosted me and Matthias in Duesseldorf

It is quite possible that your first desire when you met Daydreamer1969 will be to argue with him. Do so - and you\'ll discover that he is open for serious discussions and you can learn something from this great and very interesting (and interested in other people) man!

Above is my first comment made a year ago :)

And now - when I see Stephan I don\'t want to argue - I want to hug him as my good friend. Still I haven\'t heard him singing yet - that has to be done someday. Follow your dreams and have great time with new responsibilities :)comment date June 1, 2007, 12:42 pm (UTC)

I met Irinka now several times in real life and we worked together in several teams in different hospitality networks.

Irinka is one good example why Hospitality networks makes someones life richer and better. Time after time our relationship got closer and closer and I would trust Irinka now with my life. She is very responsible and sensitiv person. You can have great fun with her, or just enjoy life. I am happy to know her and to call her know a friend.
Big hug to you from duesseldorf.comment date June 24, 2007, 2:22 pm (UTC)
I met Irinka in real life and worked together with her in volunteer groups.
Irinka is one of the warmest and most heartful persons I ever met. But that does not mean that you cannot have great discussions with her. She has her own mind and it is great to exchange opinions with her. But even better is toi hug and smile with her and enjoy the idea of breaking borders. Irinka you bring sun in everyones life. Hope I can give you back something and someday I will sing for you :D

Even if our contact is now very rare, cause she moved to London, I have to say that Maria is one of the best persons I ever met in my live. There are only rare people in the world who can have such deep and honest emotions like her. She is absolutly trustworthy and high intellegent person in both ways IQ and EQ

When the powers that be decided I should end up in Düsseldorf, Stefan was extremely helpful and offered me a place to sleep, something to eat, and good conversation to boot.
We met later on at the Berlin Beach camp too, where it was once again nice to talk with him and have some beers.
A very friendly person, easy to be around, and a wealth of information.
