About Me

Basically, I'm just another human being. Apart from this I'm more or less studying philosophy and theology in Munich and have a quite ordinary student's life. I'm very much into photography which is my way of collecting, re-telling storys and realitys. Even if I'm studying theology, I am not that kind of a chliché theology-student, going to church every day and living a prude, boring life, lightyears away from the sunny side of life - I started studying theology out of curiosity, the hope to get another perspective on human beings an especially how religion affects humans' thinkung about themselves.
I love to spend time in Modern Art Museums and Galleries (if you want we can go there together. I know the ones in my hometown pretty good).
I'm not a very talented smalltalker, but I prefer having longer conversations combined with food. Cooking and especially baking (my grandma is slowly giving her awesome cake recipes to me) are beloved activitys of mine - especially when there is someone, who eats with me afterwards.
Apart from all this, I'm about to drown in a huge amount of books because I'm unable to give them away forever and you will never meet me without one in my backpack.
From all my journeys, I'm sending plenty of postcards to friends, my family, my cat and people I haven't seen for a year.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people and not places. For insights. For new perspectives. For having a good time with people. To be more than a visitor. To travel light. For the simplicity. And especially because through couchsurfing I found places to call home all over the world.

Interests

Creative and bustling human being. Never without a book. In love with humans. Searching for different realitys. Story-collector. In love with silent places. Passionate solo-traveller.
So maybe you can imagine, what my interest are. If not, just ask.
