About Me

*** As I get a lot of messages, I may not be able to answer all the copy/paste-messages, but rather concentrate on individualized ones ***

Living on the countryside, 2 hours from Munich, with my boyfriend and our cat Mauzi in a big family house.

Interests

Hmmm, where to start... :D Well, like nearly everybody else I like reading. I watch a lot of movies and series, and I´m grateful for a few quite nice cinemas in Munich, which are little and cosy and do not only show mainstream but also alternative movies.
I love playing the piano (unfortunately I´m still a noob and try hard to annoy nobody :D), and draw and paint in my spare time. Also I like to go for a walk in nature, listen to audiobooks, go swimming and sunbathing (summer is best!). I´m happy to get in touch with all kinds of animals (love especially cats) and am interested in their behavior and communication.

Because I´m a nature and animal lover, I've been vegan since 2011.
Other topics I´m into are f.e. feminism and gender studies, atheism, ecology, human rights, and of course, art, education and philosophy. I have strong values considering anti-racism and -sexism, and while I find conspiracy theories like flat-earth and chemtrails really fascinating, please don't visit/host me if you really believe in this kind of stuff (I'm a paid member of the government and big pharma and antifa inc. to suppress you woke enlightened people, so please don't disturb my workflow :') ).
Sarcasm aside: I enjoy hanging out with my friends, drink some beer and wine now and then, going to parties and bars, have fun with video games (Life Is Strange, Pokémon, Witcher 3...), Netflix (Stranger Things, Adventure Time, Mindhunter, Friends, Outlander...) and chilling out. :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Books I like are for example "1Q48" by Haruki Murakami, "Momo" by Michael Ende, "Sophiechen und der Riese" by Roald Dahl, "Le Petit Prince" by Saint-Exupéry, "Die Känguru Chroniken" by Marc-Uwe Kling, "The Help" by Kathryn Stockett and "The Physician" by Noah Gordon.
Besides reading I really enjoy listening to audio-books, or what is even better, being read to by someone. :)
Also, I love many german children´s books as well as children´s movies like that from Disney and Studio Ghibli (Spirited Away!) :))
I like many many movies, so it's hard to pick a favorite. Also I enjoy watching documentaries about nature, humans and other animals.
I love to listen to soundtrack-music, like i.e. the one of "Lord of the Rings", or classical music in general (Ludovico Einaudi, Vivaldi, Yann Tiersen etc.).

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach drawing, piano playing, how to cook vegan meals, and not only the German language, but the Bavarian dialect! :D
I´d love to learn some words of other languages!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Basically, I´m offering a place to stay and sleep. Since it's not really easy to reach our home without a car, I can pick you up from the next train station.
Here, you can go on beautiful walks and hikes, discover the valley by bike and just enjoy the scenery.
