About Me

I'm really happy to offer my couch, but I need MY SPACE!! I work full time, I have a child and my boyfriend and I need MY TIME. So if I am free and relaxed I really appreciate getting to know you and show you around, if I am busy, I will only have time for the first thing, but maybe not for the second. So if you are an independent person that also enjoys exploring on his or her own company, you are very welcome!

I can rather host people at the weekend or if I'm on holiday.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really want to get to know YOU! ... I'm more into talking to people and getting to know them underneath the surface than into anything else. I sometimes ask myself why I didn't study psychology... well, never say never! So, I love travelling and I love to get to know other people and cultures... as I have to work from time to time I thought it would be a nice idea to start couch surfing... to bring a bit of traveling into my daily routine.

Interests

I rather prefer travelling than reading. Or even better reading while travelling... That's the most awesome thing to do :) I love travelling by bus. I did quite long bus travels in South America and realized that its the best time ever... you're caught in the bus, can't go anywhere, don't have to do home work, you can read, listen to music and become lost in thoughts.
I realized I'm not a very sporty person. I'd love to, but since I stopped playing volleyball a few years ago, the runs I did or the visits of the gym could be counted on a few hands... so I do yoga from time to time.
One of my biggest interests is....EATING!! I love to cook and to try new dishes always.

Music, Movies, and Books

Eat pray love - obviously! Just feels like my story.

Just recently thought about my favorite books...
- John Strelecky - The why are you here Café
- Paulo Coelho - The Alchemist
... I read to many books of that kind at the moment... these two I really loved.

I like a broad range of music... for no reason I enjoy a German folk guy with my best friend sipping wine...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To live in Chile for a year and to do backpacking for a couple of weeks there. Also to go to Australia for four weeks only accompanied by my three year old son (now he's four by the way). It's been quite a rough time though... But even rough times are good ones ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a teacher... But I love to be a student of this life as well.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Long conversations with a bottle of wine and a nice homemade meal...
