ABOUT ME
You think I can tell you in the space of this box? ^_^
Well, I can try:
I enjoy meeting new people and learn from them!
I'm usually quite busy and running around from one place to another... that is why I appreciate encounters with friends and other people even more.
In my freetime I volunteer for an exchange organization in Switzerland. I get in touch with many young people from all around the world and I learn much about foreign cultures.
I would describe myself as an open-minded and communicative person, easy-going and always eager to see and learn more ;-)
In the future I hope to be working in an international environment, maybe even abroad. The world has so much to offer, I want to experience and see as many different things as possible!
PHILOSOPHY
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
(Mark Twain)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I wish I'd get more possibilities to participate in CS... Still have to work on my experiences ;-)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Not too many yet... Mainly I met up with people to go party, to have dinner or just to do some trips. I'm not (yet) able to host travelers, but I've surfed a couple couches. All in all I've had good experiences!

Music, Movies, and Books
✈I love watching movies, so I don't have a favorite one, there are
just too many good ones .
✈I wish I had more time to read books of my own (and not for studying
reasons), but an amazing and one of the most inspiring book was "Eat, Pray, Love" (and I mean the book, not the movie!)
✈I listen to a wide range of different music and I am always seeking new tunes. I am, however, a lot into latin music ;-)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
An amazing thing was my trip to Bali where I taught English at a center for children. I had never been in such a country before and by living and working with locals I learned much about life and myself.
...but I am sure there are even more amazing things waiting for me and I can't wait to discover and experience them ✈ ✈ ✈
Teach, Learn, Share
✈ I don't know what I'm specificly good at, but I'd be happy if I can teach anything to anybody
✈ The many encounters with the many people all around the world have added much spirit to my way of life. I am taking every chance to meet new people and learn more from them
✈ I like sharing life stories
