I love learning, and I'm rather chaotic in the learning goals that I choose. Sometimes it's a language, sometimes it's improv comedy or jumping from planes while miraculously staying alive. The thing that will most certainly stay with me always is playing piano. The other thing that I love is talking - I always like a good conversation. That's also why I prefer spending time in bars rather than clubs. But if someone teaches me how to dance, maybe I'll learn that, too. I love traveling, even though I do it much less than I'd like to.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Went to a local meeting in Berlin once, which was inspiring. Meeting people that have the guts to travel far-away places for months really reminded me of how small my personal world usually is, and how many of us tend to stay in our comfort zone rather than explore what's out there.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: Piano, music theory, German, English, packing a parachute

Learn: Spanish, please! My Greek is very rusty, could be fun as well, or something Scandinavian. Also I'm super inexperienced in dancing, if anyone wants to try and awaken my interest by showing me some moves...

Share: Stories, stories of big life changes, travel stories
