About Me

CURRENT MISSION

enjoying Leipzig

ABOUT ME

Well. I am a passionate traveller and hitchhiker. I like good food. I love the sun. I need an ocean breeze from time to time. I am interessted in different (alternative) lifestyles and totally amazed by cultures other than mine.

PHILOSOPHY

There are no bad experiences. There are better ones and worse. Also I think there is something like Karma, so I try to do good - most of the time..

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My experiences were totally great so far. I am nosy on all the different types of hosts and surfers and feel that its always a big personal gain to meet on this platform. I love to discover the local secrets with the hosts and learn something that is not listed in the guidebook.

Interests

I love having a good time, try different music and literature, spending time with my friends (especially dancing), going to the cinema/ theater, take a walk, good food!!!, sometimes even exercise...
i am active in the students council and for some time i am godmother of a little 9 year old girl. we spend time and i try to show her a different lifestyle because shes from a rather limited family/household.

Music, Movies, and Books

My music taste is pretty diversified. I like it from Abba to Frank Zappa, from Damian Marley to The Killers, always open for less popular genres.
A few of my favorite movies:
Dogma
Fifth Element
Catch Me If You Can
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
The Departed
Inception
Moon
Blow
my blue valentine
the place beyond the pines
some German films..

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The first deep impression of life and lifestyles i had after my 4 month travelling around New Zealand. I bought a van and slept in it. I met so many different and interesting people and decided to live an easier, broader life.
A very fascianting way to travel was my journey to Istanbul via hitchhiking. I started with a friend in Germany and it took us 5 days and gave us back our faith in the good of humanity and so much fun.

Teach, Learn, Share

would love to learn how to play the drums.
