About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To bring love or something good to the people in my life and - through what i do/work to create something that adds value to other people's lives or creates change in a positive way on this earth!

ABOUT ME

I try my best to be a warrior of light! Meaning, I embrace life and try to love it everyday, also the not so good days because I believe that there is something new and important to learn in everything that happens to us. I try to be a grateful person as life has always been good to me and given me so much. Thats why i am always looking for the things i am supposed to do in life to contribute to a better world!

PHILOSOPHY

"Don't ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive, and then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive." (Harold Whitman)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I do love experiencing new things and getting to know new people who change my point of view, who broaden my horizon who teach me something! And that is why i am so drawn to couchsurfing and its mission. Because I believe something amazing can happen as soon as we are ready to learn from each other! I try to contribute the best I can by being open and wanting to experience!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had a wonderful first couchsurfing experience in St. Petersburg, Russia where my boyfriend and I were hosted by another young couple. I have never experienced such great hospitality. I spent my birthday in St. Petersburg with them - celebrating as if we had known each other for a long time! Another great experience was in Miami, Key West, where we were hosted by a retired wonderful man who took us in short notice because we couldnt find any other affordable place in this cool but touristy and kind of expensive town. We talked a lot about his art that he showed to us and about past journeys that he had taken to Europe before. Really great!
