About Me

The past ten years of my life, I spent living in London, UK - a city I love and will always consider my second home and the place that shaped my adult life more than anything. Nevertheless, I am weary of the big city and in need of a change of scenery and venturing out of my comfort zone again.
I can be quiet, I can be loud, I like to have a civilised night in, I also liek a party, I like nature and wildlife, I like a hectic highstreet, mostly I am a joyful, life-loving human being and easy going and respectful.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am curious about people and how they live. I joined in 2008 and never really used my account.. although I really really do think the idea is fantastic.

Music, Movies, and Books

All time favourite of mine is Franz Kafka, for example. But I am into reading (fiction) in general, so we may be able to discuss our favourite books.
I work as a subtitler, means I like foreign films and that.
One of my music heroes is David Bowie, but I also have a thing for techno.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I used to work as a teacher in a North London public secondary school.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you German...or share a bottle of wine that I could bring to your house or tell you all about why David Bowie was the greatest musician on earth.
