About Me

CURRENT MISSION

saving the day with a smile on my face

ABOUT ME

Hey Couchsurfer!
Nice you klicked on my profile. My Name is Barbara. My motives behind couchsurfing is to meet and communicate with people from all over the world. At the moment I am in the process of moving to Donostia/ San Sebastian, Spain therefore I am excited to explore this process as well with the advantages of couchsurfing.
I would further discribe myself as interested (seriously i can get excited about so many things), creative, maybe a bit confused if i am overwhelmed, happy. If i can think about any sense behind a mission i will be up to it.

PHILOSOPHY

My dad had this sentence: Change - accept - or leave. This are the only possiblities in any situations. there is no help if you are just sitting around being annoyed of something. You have to check your possiblities can you change/accept/leave the situation. Even though its difficult i like to remind myself about these solutions

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Like i said before i am only able to offer you a drink and a nice conversation. But i would love to have the possiblity to see other areas and countries by surfing on different couches because i love the idea of getting to know not just the sights of a city but also the local people and their experience.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I enjoyed couchsurfing going around USA and Canada the first time. Since then I visited different places and did get in contact with CS through different hosts and events and did couchsurfing in a privat way (sleeping at a friends of friends of a friends house)

Interests

well i think everybody writes down travelling and meeting people so count that for me too. I also like to do sport - trying out different things from time to time i am especially interessed in outdoor activities like hiking, kajaking, but i am faszinated by dance as well even just watching is great. contemporary art in any form inspires me aswell. I am really fascinated exploring how life is working in other situations and realities - kind of connected to my subject of study Cultural and social Anthropology.
Basiclly i am up to everything offered - keeping my ways open in this way

Music, Movies, and Books

difficult question always. the following list is not to be taken too serious changes seriously all the time.
most impressiv movie: "Into the wild"
Books: "Hektor and the secrets of love"and "Hektors journey or on the search for luck"
Music is dependent on my mood. Anything can be good - i love drumcircles and any music which is live.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For me personally were millions of things amazing. They all brought me a step further and every new experience teaches me new things about myself.
I think in this way for myself the most amazing thing was to experience total silence on a trip to death valley in California USA. I have never ever in my entire life felt something like that to just hear nothing. For me it was the most impressiv moment

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like to learn more about meditation and my inner balance.
I can share some (judged by my friends) great cooking skills as well as some stories.
