I do not accept guests at the moment. 3 years ago I got a dog with history and she is not as happy to meet new people as I am.

I am a mom of 2 fantastic children, age 13 and 16. I work for the evil matrix of telecom industry, but I am a gardener in my heart. I used to be a passionate photographer, right now I have too little time for that, but my fanpage is still there for you to enjoy: https://www.facebook.com/gaukapuka/

I am a vegan, nature lover, permaculturist, yogi, cyclist, left-wing supporter.

PLEASE DON'T SEND ME SEX OFFERS, I AM NOT INTERESTED!
Please don't expect me to reply to you or explain why I am declining your request if you have not bothered to read my profile info. Many people treat Couchsurfing as either a place to hook up or find a free lodging. I don't. I will not host you if you have no references or have a hundred references from hosts and zero from surfers.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I am always happy to meet new people and add some fun to my home routines. I lived abroad with my kids in a multinational neighborhood and I want to keep exposing them to the variety of cultures and diversity of humankind, because I believe it is the best way to keep them open-minded and protect them from absurd ideas like racism, nationalism and xenophobia.

I also believe that it is always worth to share what you have. I've experienced a lot of kindness in unexpected circumstances and I wanna pay the Universe back. Amazing things can happen when you opened your heart and mind to a stranger. You can call it karma, magic, god or whatever, but it really works :)

For safety reasons I only accept guests with valid positive references. Please read "my home" section before you ask me to host you to avoid misunderstandings.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I read a lot, it is difficult to name one favorite book. My latest discovery is Margaret Atwood. I enjoy reading sf very much, it inspires me to contemplate infinite directions our world can go to. Lately I enjoy non-fiction books more and more.

My music taste includes many genres, as long as the music affects my emotions.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I managed to start living my life the way I want it. I am still on my way to get there.

And now... show me that you care who you are staying with, not just looking for a free hostel for one night. Please answer a simple question: what book / movie from your country that I probably have not heard about, would you recommend to me? Emergency and last minute requests are fine, but please don't claim you've read my profile and liked me so much if you haven't! I will immediately know you are just copy-pasting a request, and I find such dishonesty highly disrespectful.
