I am living with my small family (2 kids, born in 2013 and 2016 an 1 husband) in a flat in Kiel-Wik, close to the sea and next to the Holstein-Stadion.
Kiel has been my hometown by choice for the last 20+ years - with some travels and times of living abroad in between. I love my work as an indipendant consultant, working with a bog variety of different clients, SMEs, corporates, NGOs, educational institutions etc. And even more than my work, I love my family :-).
During the week, I am normally wuite busy working, and on week-ends its family-time. So don't expect me to be your personal tour-guide and show you around. But if you are happy to join our family routine we will be happy to meet you! At home, we generally communicate in Spanish and German, and additionally I speak English, French and Portuguese, but the rest of the family doesn't.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To connect with fantastic people and make this world a hospitable and welcoming place!

Interests

A burning question that drives me: how can we create a future that meets the needs of all people within the means of the living planet? I am an active member of the "Economy for the common good"-Movement (www.ecogood.org) in the Kiel Region (gemeinwohl-kiel.de) and as chairwoman of "Freunde ohne Grenzen e.V." engaged in educational projects in Latin America. Apart from this: I love sailing and other outdoor activities, am always keen on getting to know other people and cultures on a deep level and I like beeing surprised by other "normalities". And I love listening to and dancing Salsa - even if I am not very good at it...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There have been so many amazing moments in my life!
I have been and like to be amazed by 'simple' things - like a sunset, a beautiful landscape, an unexpected smile, meeting very special persons, a special song in the right environment... Life luckily never stops to surprise me. And as Antoine the Saint-Exupery puts it: "L'essentiel, nous ne savons pas le prévoir. Chacun de nous a connu les joies les plus chaudes là où rien ne les promettait."
