CURRENT MISSION

learning as much as possible about different cultures

ABOUT ME

Easy going, open-minded, curious, multi-faceted, sociable, reliable, ambitious, I love smiling and laughing :) I like being outdoors, I like to party and to have meaningful conversation and I´m a hopeless optimist...

PHILOSOPHY

I only regret things I haven´t done;
I trust that everything happens for a reason, even when we're not wise enough to see it (yet).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surf and host. For me it´s not so much about staying at another place for free but more about meeting other people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted, surfed and met some people in new places. So far most of the people I met via CS were awesome!

Interests

I love travelling in general all over the world. I´m particularly interested in different cultures, therefore I prefer travelling to far distant countries. Unfortunately that´s quite difficult with my job, therefore I´m on the road or on the plane most of my weekends.
In addition I like reading good books, I like doing sports (dancing, cycling, diving) and am interested in meditations.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love reading fantasy, e.g. Partricia McKillip or Tolkin, but I also like fiction (Sebastian Faulks, Mark Helprin) and literature about buddhism. Reading is for me more important than movies (I don´t even have a TV). However, there are a few movies I like (e.g. Chocolate, Catch me if you can, Top Gun) and I like older movies (e.g. with Audrey Hepborn) and plays by Oscar Wilde.
Most of the time I listen to rock/ gothic rock, I like the 70ies and the 80ies. Actually I like almost everything, I´m just not so fond of techno, house, hiphop and the like.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

3 day mountain bike tour in Vietnam through the Mekong Delta;
Bungee Jumping from the Bloukrans Bridge South Africa

Teach, Learn, Share

I´m interested in psychology, literature and buddhism. I´m always happy to learn different languages and to learn as much as possible about different cultures.
