Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Being myself
ABOUT ME
I do things my own way and am not much into what is considered normal and common in society. It's great when you find ways to make things work, to realize your ideas and dreams, and meet people who share them. That's one of the best confirmations you can get that you're on the right track.
I love to travel and discover new places getting lost in these new situations and unfamiliar surroundings just to find myself seeing things from a different point of view.
I am curious about languages and stories being on the road among people but I also enjoy some quiet moments. I'm a communicative and honest person and not much into dishonesty and materialism.
PHILOSOPHY
Nothing is impossible as long as you try.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Because it allows me to travel and meet new people at the same time. To see places from another perspective. Locals can help you connect to a place that differently than you'd do as a simple tourist. And it's also great to present your own space of living to people and to see it through their eyes.

Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach languages which certainly goes for my mother tongue German as for English and some Italian and am always interested in learning new stuff about other languages, cultures and dialects. I definitely want to learn how to dance and different kinds of dancing. It's something I just started recently. And to learn new ways of cooking and meals because food is one of my greatest passions and I can spend quite some time of the day eating.
I can share stories - for I write and travel a lot - and am interested in new ones just the same. I can teach tennis, go on some biking trip and whatever seems like a good idea to do. Could be something totally unique and crazy; as long as it's fun and enriches one's soul and experience.
