About Me

ABOUT ME

I like everything that is connected to environment/ nature and its protection. I guess this fact defines me, somehow, a little bit.But of course, that´s not all : I love to make new experiences and explore different sites of the world. I am interested in different people and cultures - see the differences and the common grounds.
And I also like just "ordinary social events" like going out, having a beer (or two :-) and have a good conversation with nice people. I rather prefer a calm evening than a excessive party

PHILOSOPHY

Try to make our world a better one. In every thinkable aspect.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At first I was a bit suspicious about the principle of couchsurfing but since I have been for a longer time abroad I can more and more understand the system of CS. I have met many great people and they were just very friendly and I understood that you can meet everywhere nice people you just have to be open-minded and friendly.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed some times and had always met with amazing people. It opens up my mind enormously

Interests

I think I wrote about my interests in my self descripton... hard to seperate myself from my interests ;-)

  • birds
  • culture
  • environment
  • beer
  • partying
  • politics
  • history

Music, Movies, and Books

I can highly recommend "The Kite runner" and "A thousand splendid suns" (both books from Khaled Hosseini). Really good novels about life in Afghanistan.

Recently I have seen "Singing Revolution" - a great documentary about the estonians becoming an independent nation and what they experienced during their struggle for it.
Pursuit of happiness is a great movie as well.
Mostly I like movies with a deeper meaning and which make me think about their plot.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I took part in a bird migratory project in the Far East in Russia in 2012 and in 2013.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know something about birds - I am no expert but I know at least more than the average and can tell you about it if you know. I always love to improve my language skills and I love to learn about different countries (their politics, history, culture, just everything!)
