CURRENT MISSION

Learning a lot before sailing away for a new adventure

ABOUT ME

I'm a naturalist (yes, one of those old-fashioned people going around with binoculars and butterfly net), at the end of my studies.
I feel very happy and lively when I'm in woodlands or countryside.
I like to be the guinea pig for my own cooking experiments.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I like to meet locals when traveling and to meet travelers when I'm at my place.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Exploring the harsh hills of Thrace with a Lada Niva and an out-of-date map.
Well, actually, the whole EVS experience in Greece has been amazing!

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I like languages. I'd like also to learn about meditation and, more practically, self-production. If you know any particular dance, I'd like to learn the basics - or try :O)
What I can teach: Italian, a few basics of Italian cooking, photography tips, the wonders of nature... ok, just ask and let's see if I can help!

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I like cooking and I can cook something for you or help you in the kitchen.
I can tell stories from the places I've visited and from my ornithological expeditions.
I can help you in the garden, if you have one, or with your farm animals, if you have any :)
