About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To see as much of the world as possible
ABOUT ME
I am a very open-minded and polite person with a little bit of craziness. Different cultures, languages and lifestyles fascinate me a lot. That's why I am kind of a language freak and a passionate traveler... I'd love to meet new people from all around the world and get to know their different ways of life.
All in all, I'm a very optimistic and happy person especially when I am travelling. I love to smile, make jokes and laugh with others.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I mostly surfed in China in 2013 during my gap year in Sichuan province. I had wonderful CS experiences in Chengdu, Hongkong and Shanghai.
Apart from that I hosted once in China and once in Germany.
Interests
What I really love to do is dancing with fire. I've been spinning light and fire poi for a few years now and it still gets pretty addictive.
Apart from that I like swimming, biking, hiking in nature, going to the gym and doing yoga. I also want to do more hitchhiking in the future.
In my free time I often study foreign languages on my own or I meet up with native speakers and practice with them German in a so called language partnership.
Oh and what I definitely need to do more is cooking. I'm really curious about learning how to cook food from different countries, no matter if its Asian, Arabic, Mexican, African and so on...

Music, Movies, and Books
I love music of almost all kinds: It starts with classic rock, pop, electro, ska, balkan and ends with latin, reggae and classic music.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Camping two weeks on the wonderful wild beach of Karadere in Bulgaria,
Climbing the Great Wall in 慕田峪 until the wild and abandonned part,
Camping on wild beaches in Hongkong, seeing the stars at midnight floating in the Pacific
Dancing in the best music clubs in Taksim, Istanbul,
Getting lost in the huge medina of Fèz in Morocco...
