About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploring Bulgaria

ABOUT ME

hey,
i am openminded, uncomplicated and looking for some nice people to meet. i have used couchsurfing several times when i went to greece and israel with friends, and later in australia and south africa. meeting people from the cities you visit, gives a much deeper insight in a country and its people. i really enjoy that. i am interested in all these uncountable people out there. :)

right now i am organizing a journalistic project, two teams will travel Romania and Bulgaria, five years after they joined the European Union. And we will write about it and the people, we meet. I will travel Bulgaria, with Freya (from Leipzig as well) and Vessela (from Sofia).

PHILOSOPHY

is still establishing itself, there are to many good ones to include...
