CURRENT MISSION

My mission: To see new things, learn new things, hear new things. Not standing in one place - but to move!

ABOUT ME

Ok, this is hard - maybe I just throw adjectives around: outgoing, easy-going, happy (most of the time), pacifistic, love to read, vegetarian, love to chat, to sing and to dance! And I love to tell not-funny-jokes. Like: "A horse goes into a bar. The barkeeper says: Why such a long face?"

PHILOSOPHY

Be happy, be friendly, be helpful!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I don't have a couch to offer because I am sharing an apartment with two very good friends, but I would love to meet new people and show them the city of Essen! And offer a coffee of course... :))

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I don't have any experiences - apart from sleeping on friend's couches or floors. And they slept at my place, too, of course!

Interests

As I said I love to talk to people, but also read good books, watch good movies (and going to the cinema).... I am learning sign language and used to teach belly dance, also I love animals and go for a walk....
