About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Experience life with all of my senses

ABOUT ME

I'm very optimistic, open-minded, respectful and curious about everything - life, what makes you who you are but also how everything works. Love to play, fly and base (see below). Keen on solving riddles and mysteries, even wanted to be a private detective or the next MacGyver when I was little ;). I may be quiet at times (just processing) but when the music is on all I want to do is dance, dance, dance :D

PHILOSOPHY

Be respectful towards others and try to understand where they are coming from

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to surf the world and would love to hang out with curious travellers in my city, show my favorite places. And even though I can't host at the moment, can't wait to doing it in the near future :).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed a lot of couches of my friends but haven't yet used couchsurfing itself. However, when I go on an adventure trip I can't imagine anything better then staying at a real home, getting an inside look at life in a certain place and most importantly having an opportunity to meet some amazing people all over the world

Interests

My whole life revolves around AcroYoga. It gives me an incredible opportunity to connect with people on a very deep level and have tons of fun together.

You learn to trust someone completely and fly on his feet (or hands) and to be there for someone else so he feels totally safe and supported on your feet. You gotta try this out - maybe with me ;)!

In the meantime, I also love discovering hidden gems (among both people and places), being active or just simply moving, doing all other sorts of yoga, travelling, playing sports and...food (eating, cooking, whatever ;))

Music, Movies, and Books

I love movies so it's hard to choose my favorites. I definitely like some good european ones (especially Scandinavian dramas, French and British comedies and of course Pedro Almodovar's and Nanni Moretti's pieces). I also dig the slow vibe and the essence of Sundance films.
As for music - I listen to very different genres from reggae to folk, from r'n'b to good old rock. The tune just has to have a certain flow. At the moment my favorite pieces come from Imagine Dragons, Florence + The Machine, Ben Howard, Michael Franti & Spearhead and Bernhoft.
As for literature - my favorite writers include Carlos Ruiz Zafon, Stieg Larsson and Haruki Murakami and the thicker the book, the better :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Danced the night away in the Olympic fountain in Barcelona with people from all over the world

Teach, Learn, Share

As an AcroYoga junkie, I'm always up for some flying fun (both teachning and learning). And because I'm also very into other types of bodywork, massage and relaxation techniques I can teach you some of them or just help you release some stress :)...
I can always cook sth very tasty too :D!...
