CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I am a lot of things and always change and grow. So you will have to find out yourself when we meet and it will always be a surprise, a good one I hope!
But in general I would say, just to give you an idea: I am open-minded, most of the time a happy person that likes to share, discuss, dance, addicted to adventures and travelling, warm-hearted and always looking for new experiences and friendships. Sometimes I am a little chaotic and do too many things at once, but when it really matters you can count on me.

PHILOSOPHY

I live pretty fast and always try to be open and thoughtful towards new experiences. I try to enjoy life but still keep aware of the bad stuff that happens around me and change it a bit to the better, if I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love travelling and i do it a lot, so I want to surf couches everywhere I go. But even if there is no couch available its still great to just meet up for a coffee or beer and have some good talk.
I lived in a great place in Berlin with lots of people from different countries (check out "F.Rankenstein" on CS) and we hosted couchsurfers all the time. Now I live in Stuttgart, in Germanys South, and am happy to share my couch, if people come by.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love travelling and exploring the world, because it teaches you a lot, helps to reflect and change your perspectives and creates friendships and solidarity all around the globe. But only if you do it right and interact with the people you meet on an equal level. I think CS really helps to get in contact with the people you want to meet and dive into their life.
So far I surfed peoples couches, grounds and even a yurt in Spain, Hungary, Turkey, Denmark and Mexico.
In my home we also host a lot of couchsurfers and friends from all over the world.
