About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I love getting to know new people, I love traveling, why not combine both?

ABOUT ME

After typing four self-descriptions and deleting them again (because they sounded boring, arrogant, creepy and frustrated, in that order), let me just say: Talk to me and form your own opinion about me. I'm the last person who should tell you what kind of person I am.

PHILOSOPHY

I was never any good with philosophy. "Make the most of your time"? "Smile and the world smiles with you"? Something along those lines.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As a student I never had enough money to do a lot of traveling. But I was lucky enough to have friends I could visit in other countries. To give other people that same opportunity, I'd like to offer my couch and (if desired) advice and/or company for places to visit in Berlin.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Via CouchSurfing.org? None. I met a few CouchSurfers who stayed with a friend, but apart from that, I have not yet any experience with this site.
I did however crash on quite a lot of couches in quite a lot of places without having personally met the people who owned those couches before. Never regretted it once.

Interests

Photography (I suck, but I still like doing it), dancing (Salsa, mostly), reading, going out with friends, traveling, cooking and my cats.
So I guess the best experience ever would be to take a picture of myself as I dance with a friend in some kitchen in a foreign country whilst reading a book about cats.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Comedy, I like funny things.
Music: Anything, really. There's hardly any style of music from which I can't name at least one song that I like. (Although if asked, I would probably say "Err.. You know, the one that goes dundundaabadaabadeeee...")
Books: Adams, Pratchett, Dawkins, Tolkien

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Landscape never fails to impress me: A coast in Sweden, mountains in Austria, a lake in Italy. But I suppose descriptions hardly do them justice.

Teach, Learn, Share

Ask me about math, cats and donating blood.
