About Me

CURRENT MISSION

EXPOSURE...

ABOUT ME

I am very easy to get along with, friendly, tolerant, always in the mood for a good laugh or a serious conversation... I'm all for people: I just love meeting them, whether it's old friends, new ones or people I've never met before. Everything's more fun if you do it with someone. I'm a huge fan of board games, too. And films, which can be communicative, also. I also love the theatre, which is part of my job, I guess, but I do believe I will end up in the filmmaking industry one day... I have three sisters and I am very close to them. They like to travel as well.

PHILOSOPHY

I hate if someone believes their way of thinking, their beliefs, their opinions and their way of living their life is right and you ought to do it like them. I believe that everyone has his special "right" way. I like to talk about your way and mine but I will not hear about which one's is better...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to meet people and I like to travel, so why not meet people while travelling (which you usually do, whether you want to or not) ON PURPOSE? Also, if you stay at a place where you know someone (or get to know someone), you will get a closer look at the culture, a somehow "realer" picture of the place you're in and suggestions on what to visit that have a personal history... I also would want people to come to my place and show them places I like about where I live, but we don't have a couch...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first experience was back in 2011 in San Francisco and it blew my mind! I also had great experiences in Spain and South America. The world is home to some lovely people!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent seven weeks in Uganda which was hard at first but then introduced me to a completely new understanding of time. Amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

It may sound stupid but my answer would be: interesting ones. Interesting to me. It doesn't depend on where they are from, what they do for a living, where they've been, what they wear,... Of course, there's probably more to learn from someone with a completely different cultural background but nevertheless I also like meeting other Germans or Europeans. It's as interesting.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I live with three other people in a flat in the city centre and I'm trying to get my housemates to open up to couch surfers....
