About Me

CURRENT MISSION

learn to play golf

ABOUT ME

hmm, all about me. all about me is that i am not going to write anything about me here. who i am is to find out by everybody self. i can't tell how i am, because i am not thinking about that, i am just how i am.
what i can tell, is what i like to do. and that is just everything. i like to get to know new things, what ever it is. if it is to play golf (what i am learning at the moment. i just can recomend it to everybody!!!!it is very funny!!) or to eat special food...
back to my 3 passions. mybe i can describe my life best with the things i do most. it is studying. i love geography and even more geology. (short explanation: it is not just the capitals of every country in the world. and no i don't know the capital of Togo, neither how many people does live in Bulgaria!!) what it contains is how the earth is built and it shows the impressiv process and forces which brought to the countryside, we live in!!!! i learn something in class after i can go out in natur and see, understand what i learnt in theories!!great!!! this passion of cours leed to my passion to travel. with travelling i can learn so much and i can discover new things, new places and new people. i see new or other ways of life and cultures. And in the End of trip you go back and you realize much more what are you have in your life at you place.

an other obsession is football!!!(i love also all other sports, with a ball!!!) in every single free minute i would like to play football or especially futsal!!! it is something to let my energy go and to forget everything around me.

PHILOSOPHY

i think i do have a beautiful life i have so many opportunities and possitiv things in my life. so i dont have any reason to be sad at all. for me it is important to enjoy life as much as possible and just to do things i can stand behind!!! everything i do, say or think should show me, so it should be what i am and not what other people are thinking of me to be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i think it is a good opportunity to get to know people form different places. it is great if you are in a country and you can stay with locels. like this it is possible to discover a lot more about the life there.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i stayed with a couple of people in french, spain, Dublin and Belfast. i met great, friendly people,who showed me around and let me know about there cultures. sometimes it can be difficult to get used to life with straingers. but i didn't have a bad experience. i did surfing couches by meself and later also with my sister, it gave me more security.
It was great to stay with this people and of course i am looking forward to meet people with couchsurfing again.

Music, Movies, and Books

movies, hmm i like almost all kinds of movies, just not horror movies. movies has something very imperessing, like books to, they can take you out of your life and bring you for 2 hours in a complitelly different one. they can touche you very much.
i prefer "small" films, studio films, not the big, expensive hollywood productions, which try to impress by big noise and big means and small convercetion!
Books are a very nice quite way to learn a lot and escape in an other world.
i like almost all kind of music. it depends the mood i am in. but i listen from rock to folk to classics.just everything, as long it is music and not just noise.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

there are so many but one of the most imperessing thing was to snorkel with a wahelshark in austalia.
it showed me how small i am and how short and small me life is.

Teach, Learn, Share

my experience to travell in australia or to travell elsewhere by myself and with other people teached me so much about myself about other people, about ohter possibilities.
but also lifing by myself, going to uni, meet people every day is for me learning.
