CURRENT MISSION

To discover interesting 'untouristic' places, meet new curious a tad bit crazy people and experience spontaneous actions.

ABOUT ME

Information-addict. I digest news and like to listen to local stories. Im hyperly curious in what ppl moves to do things, easy-going, at times serious and other absurdish funny. Always in for a challenge and like to add a different view to discussions. Openminded, I like directness, breaking taboos but also aware of when to hold back in case of formal etiquette and when feeling vulnerable. Im an visual artist (in spe) but like with all things you feel close with, I got a love/hate relationship with arts. Im very visually oriented but like to expand my horizons to text and music as well. Maybe im a poet in this perspective.

PHILOSOPHY

you have to be a moralist if you want to make anarchy work.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

im willing to host, guide, share a drink. In return i visit meetings, be a good guest and spread the word.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I did some couchsurfing in the Netherlands both at friends place as at ppl i hardly know. And this year i went couchsurfing in Spain - finding a host seems to be hard there - but i was very, very grateful with the hosts i eventually meet. I will definetely couchsurf more often in the near future.
