About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Gathering the greatest possible variety of experiences

ABOUT ME

Happy. Easy-going. Thoughtful (at least from time to time). Curious to learn new things!

Just by reading my profile sucks (:
But I hope I am not that boring - give it a try!

PHILOSOPHY

Happiness is your personal choice. Not a result of your circumstances going accidentally well or whatever. You are your own creator of happiness. 'Just' be happy. That is it and that is hard enough.

"I love those who love me, and those who seek me find me." - Proverbs, 8,17
I am still sticking to it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

During my time in Australia I have been member of the wwoof and help-x organisation (you trade four hours of daily work in average for food and accommodation with your host), so I have experience in staying with a host and spending awesome times with him or other helpers as well. It is amazing how many different kinds of people you get to know. And how different types of experiences you can make.

Travelling is more than sight-seeing or 'coming around'. It is connecting with people.

Interests

- Music! I really listen a lot to it during the day and started to learn to play the guitar, however very zero progress recently
- Conversations
- Card / board games
- sports such as ping pong or pool billiard or volleyball to name a few, also used to play tennis while in school
- physics since I study it
- reading

Music, Movies, and Books

Ever seen 'The great kahuna'? Otherwise, I like movies with a twist in the end or non-linear ones

Sounds silly but I often pick random books by their covers! This surprisingly often works, however it is amusing how it can fail...

The decemberists, Iron Maiden occasionally, Nick Cave and the bad Seeds and Ludovico Einaudi are my favourites at the moment

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travel in general gives you so many nice experiences, just to list a couple:
hitchhiking in Tasmania, Easter procession through the streets of Jerusalem or witnessing a children ballet training session in Vitebsk, Belarus and taking the Transsiberian Train, ending up walking on the frozen lake Baikal.
