About Me

Where to begin, well, I am the kind of person that feels horribly awkward writing on an 'About Me' section, whatever I put feels forced. Like typing that I am positive or open-minded or like travelling seems somehow obvious, cliche and contrived online. I suppose I thought I knew what I wanted out of life a few years ago, which led to years of being stuck in one place at studying at a university. Now that I am out and kind of roaming/ gallavanting / volunteering / whatevering around Europe I feel excited, scared and awakened. Some ideas and values have been enforced, some abandoned. Definitely on some kind of journey, too soon to determine the outcome or the destination though.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Seems like a legit way to meet some cool people when in a new city

Interests

Practicing Yoga,

Reading, especially history books

Drawing, especially geometry or the fantastical

Cooking, lovin that healthy lifestyle

Dancing, club bangers, why not

Correct spellings and bad grammar combinations

Badminton, Hiking, Frisbee, I've been known to shoot some hoops in my day, as well

Learning, particularily when my eyes are opened to new ways of thinking or believing

And at the end of a long day (or a short day..or a half day) some good conversation and a delicious glass of wine wouldn't upset me either
