About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Still eating a lot, enjoying life but now in New York...

ABOUT ME

I would say I'm uncomplicated, open-minded and pretty relaxed. Also I'm curious and like to discover things. Sometimes I can be really boring, I like to stay at home, read, cook or watch a movie. And then, on other days, I love to go out, dancing, listening to music, meeting other people... I like to be alone sometimes and then I feel very good in the middle of a very growded restaurant, people talking around me...I laugh a lot, I like black humor
Sometimes I really don't know what I want...I guess thats a problem of many people though :-)

PHILOSOPHY

Zu allem bereit, zu nichts in der Lage :-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment, I'm only surfing but as soon as I'm back home for Christmas, surfers are very welcome to stay at my place! ...if there is someone who wants to stay in Rottweil :-)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just getting started, but I already had some great experiences in the last couple of weeks! Now I'm really looking forward to surf some couches in NY. This is a great concept and I'm happy that I can be part of it!
