ABOUT ME

I'm a SW engineer, and also a people manager, and a people person... I'm also a dancer and a mediator and generally an easy going, fun, laid back, kind, respectful and responsible person. I'm quite curious to meet and talk to others about our mutual interests, incl. travel stories, politics, science and pretty much any topic, except I don't know much about sports... so, sorry sports fans! Dance and Mediation and Relationship dynamics are my favorite topics... well, also peace on earth in our lifetime too! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm currently taking a year off from working and traveling and would like to meet interesting people along the way! Once I settle down again, I would love to host travelers on couchsurfing too.

Interests

contact improvisation, mediation, the good old art of communication... I don't generally talk about superficial things like the weather or sports, but am far more interested in people and relationships and what works and what doesn't.
