Tabula rasa

ABOUT ME

I am a friendly, easy-going individual, who is enthusiastic about traveling, and who loves to talk (a lot :)). I love coffee for the sake of its taste, and I love the smell of freshly cut grass. I am bighearted and curious.

PHILOSOPHY

"Do wrong to thyself, do wrong to thyself, my soul; but later thou wilt no longer have the opportunity of respecting and honoring thyself. For every man has but one life. But yours is nearly finished, though in it you had no regard for yourself but placed the felicity in the souls of others. ... But those who do not observe the impulses of their own minds must of neccessity be unhappy." (Marcus Aurelius)

When God closes a door, he opens a window!

"For love casts out fear, and gratitude can conquer pride." (Louisa May Alcott)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a very busy work schedule, but I try to open my home to fellow travelers when possible. Otherwise, I'm always up for grabbing a coffee or a drink :).

Interests

I love to go to new places (hence my move to Berlin). I like to hang out with people and just chat the time away in the company of a nice cup of coffee or a glass of red wine. I love to go to the theater, the opera, or the movies. In my free time I love to bake (I collect cookbooks) or just kick back at home with a good book.
