One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My fantastic story after i went by ferry from Grece to Turkey: when i got out the ferry a jung father was standing in front of me with an infant in his arms and he had much baggage and wasn`t able to handle the baggage and his little child. So he just looked at me and came over to me and without saying anything he gave the baby into my arms. I was reallly impressed about the trust he had in me, a foreign person! In my opinion this story really fits to Couchsurfing because there the base is trust! :)

And also working in a kindergarden and with disabled jouths....

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like to learn something about photography ( not only technical but also in terms of the motif :) ) ad I am interested in learning languages ( I want to improve my english and french and start learning portuguese and spanish). Besides this I am very interested in philosophy and the technic of arguing... and i would like to learn how to mix a good cocktail :-) Furthermore I am interested in learning how to dance Rock`n`Roll and Forro ( dancing in general! :)

I am in return willing to teach you german, yoga ( although I am not that agile, but I try ;), how to sue with a machine, how to make tasty sweets ( I am more into making sweets than into cocking... ) and whatever else I know where you are interested in :)
