Hello dear :) I'm Janine, loving my life, trying to live pure positivity and especially curios about everything that’s around me. I love people and I’m sure about they fact, that everybody is a good person - it’s all about understanding and respect and empathy. There’s no place in this unique and wonderful world to judge negatively and being causeless distrustful. So my goal of life is to trust, respect and be good to everybody and everything.
Since I finished my studies in July 2018 I’m here and there, mostly travelling and especially volunteering (workaway.info - have a look on it if you dont know it) around Europe for a while. It’s amazing to learn so much, no only skills, but especially social connections and myself. I absolutely recommend it to everybody! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to get around, not only visiting a place but especially getting to know it by getting to know the people who live there. Only then I can get a reall feeling for that location. I mostly don’t like to wander around alone in a foreign place, so I’m always happy to find someone to share the time, good stories, drinks and food with:)

Music, Movies, and Books

I‘m so bad at remembering names, titels, so actually everything I should type on here. So more a description:

I love and couldn’t get along without music. To me it’s the best medicine against everything. Bad mood, bad weather, bad vibes. Mostly I listen to ethnic/world music from everywhere, a lot from Spain, India and Africa. Also lots of reggae, lofi, jazz, blues and psyrock. For dancing, driving and learning I love goa, psytrance or techno in general.
Right now always and again my playlist ‘freshair’ (Janine Vorfeld)

Reading a lot, mostly three books a time from which I choose in that special moment. An easy mostly positive drama (at the moment a lot by Erich Kästner), something spiritual or about self-fulfilment and something about our world, what’s happening.

Though I studied design and specialised somehow on film, I’m not sooo much into it, but I’m always up for good recommendations. But I absolutely prefer positive and funny or tricky deep fantasy movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Olive picking in Sardinia. I'll never forget and always miss the smell of the olive fields

Teach, Learn, Share

Always learning, sharing everything.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I guess I’m cooking quite well, so for sure I can cook a dinner or lunch for us :) also I’d love to share some stories with beer or wine.
Also I’m a designer, having an aesthetic eye, that could help sometimes. Aaaand sure I’m always up for helping with anything you could need :) and for sure I’d like to share and spent time together :)
