PHILOSOPHY

A smile is a valuable gift that everyone deserves.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to host when I'm at home. Then it feels like I'm on vacation too.
And I like to surf when I'm travelling. Then it feels like I'm a little bit at home!

Meeting people makes me understanding different cultures and opinions better, sharing knowledge and hoping that we can make the world a little bit better together.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Love it! Especially if you have the chance to exchange stories, fun, ideas and laughs!

Interests

Travelling, art, theater, photography, dreaming, meeting people, reading, tea, cats, listing to stories, DIY, nature, citytrips, ecology...

I try to live more or less ecological by consuming not too much meat, swapping, avoiding to have lots of garbage, pimping up second hand stuff, being responsible with water and electricity, using public transport, my bike or my feet and being respectvol for fauna and flora.

And I like movies and series, but I don't look at them that often.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

What a difficult question! Roundtrip Iceland, or hiking at Baikal Lake, or discovering the Gobi desert, or biking through the fields near Yangshuo, or meeting new people on the way, or see people smile, or taking a massage course, or sending presents to friends, or taking part of a Chinese tea ceremony, or just walking around and discover the things you don't find in guidebooks, or ... I love to enjoy, explore and be astonished by life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a lot about art because I'm an art historian. I always want to meet new artists and discover their work.I like to meet other people and then discuss about everything and learn from it.
