CURRENT MISSION

rather chilling!

ABOUT ME

I studied (Industrial/Product-)Design which not only sounds pretty cool but also is ;) I always wanted to make big playful and quirky installations for people to simply enjoy, some of them you can see on my blog http://annikabonner.tumblr.com/
I just started working as interior designer, also cool but still new to me, we'll see.

PHILOSOPHY

mäh!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My CouchSurfing Experiences are few but were really special and simply great! I travelled through Eastern Europe with my best Friend in 2010, staying res. meeting with Couchsurfers in Krakow, Warsaw and Vilnius. Still today i am amazad how incredible nice people can be ; sharing their bathroom, livingroom, food and live with us. Same goes for another weekend i spent in Basel. Not only our lovely host managed to choke down the horrible food we prepared, he still took us swimming in the rhine ;)

Interests

Sounds terribly lame but there are just too many great TV-Shows not to consider them as "interests"...most recent watched Faves are Broad City, Lady Dynamite and Bojack Horseman, but there are so many more greats and I am sure you already know them :)

I startet playing guitar, yay!

Sports-wise I practise yoga and aerobics on a fairly regular basis. Also I think cycling (and by that I am nothing fancy or too fast, just getting from a to b) is truly one of the top three things to do in general, so i ride my bike everywhere.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Favorites include: Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, Adaption, Human Nature, Dr.Strangelove, Frances Ha. A Hitchcock or Woody Allen (80s and 90s) film is also pretty enjoyable most of the time :)

Music: genres change at times, right now it's mainly Jazz, occasionally Hip Hop and of course there ar some all time faves like Bob Dylan, Pavement, Jonathan Richman and Jeffrey Lewis and Daniel Johnston

Books: though I don't actually read a lot I have always loved the books by John Irving and the tinier works by John Steinbeck ( did not like East of Eden). White Teeth by Zadie Smith was the last book that really blew me away.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
