About Me

I ive in Jena Thuringia - the green heart of Germany as it's said.

There is a poem of from Rahel Vernhagen:
What are you doing?
Nothing.
I let the life rain on me.

I guess, this presents my current mission.
I've started to change the emphasis on different spots in my life.
Some poetry came into my life, so Joseph Beuys and his poem: Lebe! Have a look at it, you will like it - perhaps.

Freedom is one of the circumstances I appreciate with its different faces.

Last but not least...I'm a curious person, every stranger could be a new friend.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm pretty interested in people from different spots in the world. While I took part in international work camps, travelling and also in my counselling job with refugees I got to know people from many different countries like Afghanistan, Ireland, Russia, Brasil, Mexico, Syria, Serbia, Somalia, Thailand... So I learned a lot from them and their culture.

A good friend of mine, she is a experienced CS and host, told my about CS and said, that I should be part of it.
Now I'm here and look forward to be your host or guest.
I think CS is a way of an exchange. It's always a give and take to keep things like CS in a good balance.
To be respectful, reliable, honest, friendly, helpful are the basics.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen and done a lot of little things that made me happy. All those memories together with every peacful moment - with people around me or in my mind - make my days special and great.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love cooking and would invite you to some typical German food. Although I live as vegan as possible there are many tasty dishes we could cook together. Let's have some tasty organic food and chat!

I can show you some nice spots of Jena, especially the green parts of the city. If you interested in the neighbour cities Weimar, Erfurt,.. I might be able to give you some information about these places, too

I'm not a party girl. But interested in strolling around in the nature, have a coffee together, going to concerts or other cultural events. I like to visit places where street art is a part of the spot or art objects are integrated.

Let's share thoughts and ways of sustainable and social living. I try to live a sustainable live style but I do not condemn consumption. I' m curious about how you live...

What I Can Share with Hosts

Besides a cosy place for temporary living I'd try to show you the town I'm living in - it depends on my working hours -
Go together on a hicking trip, because Jena is surrounded by hills and hicking trails.
Have some yummy food, chatting, exchange...
