Hi, my (nick)name is Lina
(Even my parents don't call me by my full name).
I'm a deep thinking, warm-hearted, empathic person. Beside that I'm honest and reliable.
You can have great conversations with me but I also know when it's time to remain silent. I'm always interested in new thematics and I'm open for diffrent ways of thinking. It is always a great experience to meet new people and it is very easy to come along with me. I'm a good listener, caring friend and sometimes I even manage to be funny (:

Due to my parents both working at the 'Stuttgarter Ballett', and my childhood spent at the theater because of that, I have a distinctiv interest in art, classical music and fashion (especially the marvellouse handwork of tailoring).
Currently I'm discovering jazz and espacially enyoning it in combination with a glas of good wine and an interesting book.
I have al lot of thematic interests and I feel enthausiastic about new things very fast.
I studied biology for about four years but I switched to social education this year so that I can study 'clinical psychology' as master afterwards.
Noteworthy is maybe also my unusual job besides my studies. Since my childhood I'm working as actress for ads and productions for german television, wich sounds a lot more exciting than it is, considered that the production I'm working at is neither well known, nor remarkable. But it is fun and I'm thankful to earn my money with such a great job.

In general I try to be thankful for what I have, peaceful with who I am and mindful with the rest.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In Couchsurfing I see the prospect of not only finding (or offering) a place to sleep and rest but also to meet interesting stranger, gain insights of their way of life and to enlarge my perspectives.
