I am currently doing my MA in Berlin - it's an amazing city and I am following my dreams and hope to bring something positive to world with my studies.
I am originally from the U.S. , love to travel and have made some great and ever-lasting friends through them. I am creative - like to cook from scratch, make witchy potions like cosmetics, elixirs and creams, write, draw, do theatre, DANCE and have stimulating conversations (whatever that might mean ;-)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I was on couch surfing years ago when I lived abroad for the first time and it was the best experience I had in meeting new people in a foreign country and for traveling on a budget.
Since then I've done most of my traveling outside of using couch surfing and made some of the best friends one could ask for in (travel) life. I was able to host and travel to places through my friends.
That has changed since I've uprooted myself again and moved my life across an ocean. Now living in a foreign country again, as a budgeted student, I have the opportunity to find ways to travel again (in Europe) and meet new people here.

I also think having a local 'expert' in the area where you've never travelled before or do not know anyone is the best way to find out about a place.

I also believe in the idea of trading and shared spaces where everyone respects each other. This principle is much better to me than the idea of money. But, that is a whole other topic!

兴趣

I'm a writer and socially conscious themes are important to me. I am anti-capitalist , a feminist and tend to lend towards anarchist thinking politically - though I try not to set absolutes. I believe in respecting ourselves, each other, Mother Earth / nature, the environment and all living beings to best of my ability.
This is certainly reinforced by my travels.

音乐、电影和书籍

Soul, Funk, Jazz, Janelle Monáe, Gramatik, Queen, Hip-Hop, Old School - but also rock and roll - anything with a good beat and some rhythm - I don't limit myself.
Emily Dickinson, David Sadris, bell hooks, Louise Erdrich,,, lots of reading and lots of books from Wuthering Heights to Howard Zinn - The God of Small Things (A. Roy), and too many to really give you a good idea of me!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Climbed the pyramids in Teotihuacan, Mexico and discovered that even the Aztecs happened upon a city of the Gods that they did not know who built it!

教，学，和分享

I want to share my experiences and listen to others... I believe through our differences we can find commonalities and even if not, we can learn to understand and tolerate each other. I sort of align myself with eastern philosophies and the belief in Karma.

My insight and humor - I love telling stories that happen to be funny. I enjoy cooking and making my own things from chocolate to cosmetics - and like to share this with my friends.
