CURRENT MISSION

give and take in a balanced way

ABOUT ME

Since I left my home for Ireland where I worked and lived in Dublin I got seriously infected by TRAVELLER'S FEVER through meeting people from all continents. For me it's simply such a rich experience to get to know new places, new faces, new stories, new opinions, to share interests and culture. The book of my life shall be called: "Around the world in 80 years". Who wants to join?

PHILOSOPHY

pure happiness only needs a minimum of things. a friend, a book, a song, a pencil, chocolate and time. In terms of the destination I stick to the saying:
The journey is the reward!
And: Sharing is caring!^^

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment I'm constantly couchsurfing myself in my uncle's flat where I can unfortunately not host anybody else. But if you need advice or just wanne go out for a cup or a pint - let me know! :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met a bunch of amazing people while travelling arround Ireland. They really did encourage me to seek for more experience in this worldwide altrusitic network!

Interests

too many to "fit them under a hat", as you say in Germany. I love consuming and producing music, arts, biology, dancing, hiking and swimming, out-door activities, cooking, garden work, hide and seek, tree climbing, sleeping at the beach, the taste of freedom... After having studied Psychology in Dresden I settled over to Berlin to start all over again by visting a self-organised filmschool. Here I learn not only how to make films but also how to participate in an autonomous school, create one's own lessons and structures and realize shared visions in a cooperative community!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

my first breath, being at the end of a rainbow (and NOT finding a pot of gold...)

still awaiting: aurora borealis (even if it sounds like a disease to me;) and a hot-air-ballon-ride

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm quite good in gardening, playing flute and also a bit piano, making poetry and taking photographs. Furthermore I am an expert in German Language, so don't be afraid to present your sweet accents!
Seriously! I'm interested in mainly every topic except for soccer, engineering and computers. I'd love to improve my guitar, cooking and language skills!
