CURRENT MISSION

since there was a problem with my email account, I didn't receive any message from CS! so sorry for not responding

ABOUT ME

I was born in Germany and my family is entirely German, but I would not consider myself German.
I don't remember who said it, but some famous person once said he was rather European. This is exactly how I feel. I can identify with so many cultures I met. I spent a year in Paris and travelled a lot, now im am living in the south of France at the moment for an Erasmus semester. I feel French, I feel Spanish, I feel English, I feel German, too.€œ I also met a lot of people from South America during my year in Paris (especially Colombia, Mexico and Brazil) who I appreciate a lot and I feel like them, too. Unfortunately, I've never been there (because if I would go there, I'd like to spend several months abroad and I haven't had the time until now).

My passion, obviously, are languages. I'd love to learn (or at least understand) all the languages of the world! I know that's impossible ;)

PHILOSOPHY

Le mot liberté n'admet, par définition, aucune restriction.
[Jean Yanne]

Ne demande jamais ton chemin à celui qui sait. Tu pourrais ne pas te perdre !
[Simone Bernard-Dupré]

On s'étonne trop de ce qu'on voit rarement et pas assez de ce qu'on voit tous les jours.
[Madame de Genlis]

Vivre d'abord, créér ensuite.
[Jan Kounen]

Pour réussir dans le monde, retenez bien ces trois maximes: voir, c'est savoir; vouloir, c'est pouvoir; oser, c'est avoir.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surf from time to time, whenever I have the possibility. Since I'm moving a lot between France and Germany, it's almost impossible for me to host surfers, but I really hope that I'll be living in a more permanant place next year in order to be able to give something back to the community :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first experiences with CS: Before I started studying in Germany, I went to Mannheim for one week to look for a flat. I met so many nice people, it was incredible. Everyone was just trying to help me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing trip ever was to Senegal (Africa). I met incredible people who shared all they had with me, which was often not much, but they were offended when you refused what they offered. Very warm-heated people that I won't ever forget...
