CURRENT MISSION

Love is the answer! Respect helps and tolerance is the consequence of an open mind and a loving heart!

ABOUT ME

I am mother of four wonderful humans, three of them are already grown up, one is a wonderful wild teenager! The most important things in life I ever learnt come from my children: be kind, be spontaneous, have an open heart and an open mind! I'm interested in almost everything except taking part in the global moneygame. Love to meet people from different cultures and learn about their views on life! I love being wild and crazy, but I also enjoy being serious and calm - it's a kind of moody thing...

PHILOSOPHY

Every smile is an invitation to let somebody into your heart!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
My youngest son and I have decided to get rid of everything we own and start a trip around the world. We're not sure about how long we will be on the road and where we will end up :-) But this will be a life changing experience for both of us and we are so looking forward to it! We are eager to get to know all you lovely people on this planet and share stories and knowledge with you :-) When time has come to get settled again I will be more than happy to offer a couch or even a bed for all the sweet people wanting to meet me!

... UPDATE:

that was last November & December... I am all by myself again and currently travelling Australia... absolutely loving it!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
What can I say, five different couches - five different people - I fell in love with each of them - five wonderful friends that will forever have a place in my heart!!!! ❤❤❤

What do I expect from further couchsurfing? More love haha!! :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Being alive means learning. Past and future are imagination, not reality. And still we need both to manage our every day life. Experience helps with routine and dreams are the engine to keep things going...

What I Can Share with Hosts

Laughter, compassion, a shoulder to lean on, a little wisdom, my sense of humor, if you like some cooking, love for life and hugs, hugs, hugs!
