CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy my summer holidays to the fullest!

ABOUT ME

I love travelling ever since I've been a baby ;-)

PHILOSOPHY

I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing. (Agatha Christie)

Wirklich reich ist, wer mehr Träume in seiner Seele hat als die Realität zerstören kann.

We all start as strangers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been on Couchsurfing for almost 10 years now and I strongly believe in the concept of opening up your door to strangers especially when countries and politicians start to built fences around countries again instead of further breaking them down. Haven't had any bad experiences so far, that says it all, doesn't it 😜

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surf and host - I enjoy both equally! I also love to go to the cinema or theatre with couchsurfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met some very interesting people through couchsurfing and made some real friends. Also, as a student I wouldn't have had the chance to travel as much as I did without couchsurfing simply because it helps you to save money.

Ich mag generell sehr gerne Action-Filme und bin da auch nicht besonders wählerisch, Hauptsache es kracht und explodiert. Liebesfilme finde ich auch super, da aber nur die guten ;-)
