About Me

CURRENT MISSION

chasing the sun

ABOUT ME

All about me...? Still a long way to go to figure that out for myself so here's just some things I love: good books, good food, good jokes, good thoughts, Yoga, naturenaturenature (treeeees!), gardening, creativity, music, languages, traveling, Alice in Wonderland, dancing, laughing, sleeping, blogging, cooking, brushing my teeth, inspiring people, arts, cherry blossoms, sweets&treats, photography, foreign cultures, animals, the seasons, my violin&ukulele, and so on...

PHILOSOPHY

A mind is like a parachute, it doesn't work if it isn't open."
***Frank Zappa

"You can't do anything about the length of your life, but you can do something about its width and depth."
***Evan Esar

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love both surfing and hosting! I surfed in various places and hosted people in Hamburg. Over the last few years, I've been based in Sweden and Denmark, and unfortunately couldn't host because I mostly lived in tiny places with hardly enough space for myself.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just absolutely love it, CS has such a good karma for our beautiful planet, all about giving and taking, you get a wonderful experience from someone and pass it on to another person. Every time I leave the home of a host, I am so grateful, knowing that I want to make other people feel like these people have made me feel. So far I've only met great people via CS and every time it's been an enriching and heart-warming experience.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love cinema (but hate TV), I love books, I love music... So it´s too much to ask to list all of my favourites here.
Lately, I've been obsessed with the brilliant work from Rebecca Solnit, in general I read (and think) a lot about feminism, racism, intersectionality, evnironmentalism etc. But also love all sorts of novels that i normally devour within a few days. =)
If someone asks me about the music I listen to, I never really answer because I don't want to be put in a box (which makes most people think I have a horrible taste in music so I'm too embarrassed to talk about it).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Waking up in the stunning beauty of the desert in the early morning after a night under the stars, and the experience how little you need if you embrace the fact that you are a part of nature.

Teach, Learn, Share

There's so many things I'd love to learn more about/ improve myself. To name only a few: Language skills, exotic & vegetarian/vegan recipes, environmental stuff, learning new instruments, Yoga and Meditation practices, all kinds of anthropological stuff, photographic knowledge, Poi playing,... At the same time I can teach and share my knowledge and skills in these realms with you.
I also play the violin, I love to give away and exchange nice clothes instead of consuming new things, I love taking portraits and I'm always grateful for people who like to get photographed! The easiest way to make me happy... Let me cook a meal for you and enjoy eating it! :-))
