I am originally from Germany and France, living actually in Aarau. I'm a teacher and also work in a circusschool here in Basel. I'm an optimistic person, who appriciates sharing time with other persons, for good conversations and discussions, playing games, cooking, going out etc. But sometimes I need time for myself, for my hobbies or just to (day)dream...and for doing sports. I love and need to move a lot!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to travel and meet other persons, whether in my own house/country or in another place. I think, the most authentic way to get to know a country and its people is to spend time wih the persons living there. And it always feels warmer and to stay in a private place than in a hostel or hotel. I think, its a good way of give-and-take, in most situations.

Music, Movies, and Books

Oh, I think there is not only one per category. There are several books I really like or find interesting (for example life of Pi) , so it seems difficult to me to limit the answer. Same for the music, I like different kinds of music, depending on my mood, and it is also a difference to me whether it is live music or just backroundmusic...can be ska, raggae, punk, dub, music from the 60ies, techno, world music...

Teach, Learn, Share

The most funny thing I can teach your are acrobatics, if the weather is good, on a nice place in the nature, or other circus disciplines. But of course, there are also other things, like recipes, games...whatever you are interested in the things I know:-) I think, it mostly depends on or results from the situation what one can teach or wants to learn.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We can share the dinner, I can show you Aarau or other places.
