ABOUT ME

Humour is the most important thing to me. I like to laugh and make other people laugh.

A friend once asked me to look back at my life and name the moments I was happiest. And all of them were when I have been with good friends. If I could find a way to gather all my friends - that are spread around the world - in one place to live there with me, I would be the happiest person in the world. Until that happens I have to make more little moments of happiness.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I was very involved in the CS Community in Melbourne. I organised a few activities and took part in many more.
Melbourne's CS Community changed my life and I want everyone to feel happy and welcomed with CS!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I`ve read all this great experiences from other CS members, before I actually started doing CouchSurfing.
And now guess what?!
I had great experiences with CouchSurfing too!

The common CouchSurfer is usually open-minded and interested in travelling. So thats at least two things you can work with.
If you really connect with your host/guest/travel mate you can learn something about their life, experiences and personality. Every encounter will leave a mark on your personality as well.

One of the best experiences I had was the CS Bush party near Perth. I hurled myself into a whole bunch of total strangers and had a fantastic night! Not just that I made good friends, in retrospect I also discovered some kind of self-confidence!

But what really changed my life was the CS Community in Melbourne. I love Melbourne and its people. I`ve met such awesome people, I was and still am really heartbroken that I had to leave them. I was incredibly happy in Melbourne.
You meet residents and locals over and over again so you can actually build up a social circle that will be a big part of your life. To everyone who is new in Melbourne I advise: Go get active in the community and your life will change :D

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I guess the most amazing thing I have done so far is the Everest Base Camp Trek. I`m not in the best shape and I wanted to give up a couple of times. But I pushed it through and made it to the Base Camp!
I was going through hell most of the time, but it was totally worth it at the end! It`s just the most amazing scenery up there and a real challenge for the body.

Another highlight was Karijini National Park in Western Australia, where three gorges meet and you can trek and do an amazingly exciting spider-walk to get to a breathtaking water cave.
Also climbing up and walking to the middle of Uluru was amazing!

First of all: never make a spontaneous decision based on current emotions!

All the gorilla camping in Australia was quite useful for my self-development.
I tend to be overly worried sometimes. Finding a place in the cold dark, somewhere hidden in an Australian bush (or industrial area), sharing the place with all kinds of insects/animals, sneaking out before dawn, hoping not to get caught by rangers, paying a high fine, maybe losing the car... it has cost me quite an effort to overcome my concerns.
As you can imagine it was quite nerve-wrecking at the time, but at the end it all went well and helped me to change my attitude.

I`ve learned to stop thinking too much, being overly worried. I mean, what could have happened? To be realistic, the worst thing in the case of getting caught by a ranger would have been to take the tent down in the middle of the night and get a fine. well, it`s a pain in the ass but at the end it`s "just" money.
I can`t understand anymore what I was always afraid of (yeah, of course we also could have accidentally run into a mass murderer or into wild/dangerous/poisonous animals. but... come on, what are the chances?!).
