About Me

ABOUT ME

I would say I am a very easy-going, flexible person. I don't like getting mad, or people being mad at me so that rarely happens. I like to do all sorts of activities, from hiking, rafting, biking, dancing, watching movies, reading, eating, yoga, meditating, partying, sleeping, etc. I am good company and love to meet and hear everyones own personal stories. I love to learn about all the different ways humans can live their lifes. I am still searching for what exactly is the purpose of mine, but for right now I am just trying to explore and learn as much as possible from all the places I see and people I meet.

PHILOSOPHY

Work to Live don´t Live to Work.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couches are not always that comfortable, but exploring uncomfortable situations is part of growing.

Interests

People interest me. I also love dancing and theater shows. Food also interests me, cooking or going to try new types of food or beverages.
Right now my life is in constant change so this is hard to answer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Summiting the Villarrica Volcano in Chile then sliding down it. Beautiful view from the top, praise to la pacha mama then the best sledding I've ever experienced! Haha

Everytime I crossed the border of Chile and Argentina...awestruck.... .it is just gorgeous there.

Also the sunset on the coast, in Florida, Chile, Texas, Hamburg port, Portland or anywhere ...it is always beautiful.

I am awestruck a lot from the kindness strangers have shown me throughout my life. I consider myself very lucky for meeting so many nice and wonderful people around the world who host me, make friends with me, or show me their city and let me into a piece of their life.

Teach, Learn, Share

Since I have worked in many different jobs in many different places I have a lot of random skills and knowledge to share. I have been a photography assitant, dental assitant, substute teacher, teaching assitant in a Montessourri school, Indoor-cycle (Spin) instructor, Au pair, waitress, and have worked in hostels. Learning keeps me living and the best way to learn is by being out in the world, not in a classroom, for me at least, nothing against teachers....

What I Can Share with Hosts

Love, encouragement and happiness. My grandmother's friend said I am a "defunker". Aka I help people get out of a funk or rut in their lives.
