I love life. I believe there is a joy and a lesson in every experience - and the sole purpose of being alive is to learn how to love and connect more deeply. Indeed I am a big hippie at heart - but (as much as possible) a grounded and practical one!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

To meet amazing people. To save money. To go on an adventure. To sidestep faceless commercial profiteering and embrace the openness and generosity of my fellow humans in order to pay it forward at every opportunity.
