I'm generally open and curious and attracted to strange things. I may appear a bit vague maybe at times when I travel but I'm never insensitive to situations. I like to meet people by chance or by little planning, to move on from place to place like changing topics in abstract philosophical conversations, with humour and banal poignancy.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Because I like to meet people under these conditions: an open exchange of hospitality, curious and trusting.

i looked at the guard straight in the eyes until he blinked twice. I took that as the sign I had been told to wait for. I took a step forward and crossed

Lehren, lernen, teilen
