Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As I'm new to CS, I'm still figuring this out. I'm more than willing to welcome people into my house, room or couch (whenever I happen to have any of these things), and to enjoy each other's company and conversation.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None yet, but I hope to have lots!

Interessen

I love anything outdoors: hiking, camping, swimming, snorkelling, jogging, ultralight backpacking, biking...I tried a few triathalons last year. I also enjoy reading, traveling and watching movies. Last year, I started to do more crafts and made a mosaic mirror. Anything involving coffee, chocolate and cats is also A+ in my books.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I lived in an old, haunted convent for a year in New Zealand (a convent turned into a B&B, which was then turned into a small study abroad campus). I was also the care-taker of a sheep named Stewie who heartily enjoyed games of hide and seek.
