"Think about it: what contempt can there be, when we're just the same as he is, when everyone's the same as he is? For I mean, we're all like him, no better. And even if we were better, we'd still behave like him if we were in his position. You know, Lise, my Elder once told me: 'People must be looked after in every respect as though they were children, and some as though they were patients in hospital.'"

Alyosha, to Lise in the 'The Brothers Karamazov'

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Staying with locals is great, but it's only one part of what makes Couchsurfing so good. Giving others a meal and a place to stay and having the same done for you is a simple, beautiful experience.

If you can dig *Holy Mountain* we'll get on real well.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Being far, far away from friends and family and their expectations is extremely liberating. It's been more-or-less uphill since then.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Everyone knows a lot more than they first let on. Spending time with someone opens up a world of opportunities to share what you love.

I'm interested in learning more about plants of any kind, how to cook something interesting, or...well, just about anything if you're willing to teach it to me.
