CURRENT MISSION

Make people better or make better people

ABOUT ME

I like relaxing, laughing, having conversations, travelling, being prepared, sharing wine and good food; I like living :)

I love language, and dancing. Learning languages, speaking them, and most importantly, playing with them. As for dancing, I am currently looking for a partner who will lead me in Argentine Tango and learn that dance with me, but it's not the only dance I like.
I am interested in politics and talking about social questions. I like to discuss. I like to think of myself as very tolerant and relaxed, fun person who isn't afraid to tell others when I disagree with them.
I like finding solutions, and enjoy understanding the structure of a problem or learning something new.

PHILOSOPHY

"Humans need fantasy to be human. To be the place where the falling angel meets the rising ape. There's hardly a place in the universe where humans can live without being frozen or fried and yet you believe that a bed is a normal thing. It is the most amazing talent." - Terry Pratchett - Hogfather

"The measure of our humanity is how we treat people we don't need" - [forgot the source, sorry. If you know it, please drop me a line]

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I enjoy having and entertaining guests. I try to be a visitor people like to remember and meet again, and I spread the word by sharing my good experiences. I have also organized a quite few CS meetings in Tuebingen and will continue to do that.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met really cool people in many places and I never regretted having someone as guest. Surfers saved me from a very boring week-end, alone in Barcelona. Before joining CS more than 10 years ago, I surfed the couch of strangers in Vienna and was amazed at their hospitality and trust. I try to give back and contribute by trusting others and being worthy of trust.

Interests

Friendship, languages, dancing, politics, social justice, music, computer science, many things.
