About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Think big! Life's what you make of it! Trust in your abilities and use your God given talents to make your life unique.

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty fun person to be with, at least that's what people tell me. I like to be active, be on tour and travel, be out in the world to learn about myself and about other cultures. But also I like to just hang out with friends and spend hours talking or even being silent with eachother. Creative stuff is totally my thing and if I'm interested in a new topic I want to find out as much as I can about it. I e.g. enjoy writing and coloring or scrapbooking and photography. Also I LOVE musics, my piano, the guitar, singing and dancing. Another very important part of my life is sports which I love to do with my dad (he's 70!!), I did track and field, basketball, surfing and wind-surfing, climbing and hiking, volleyball and I really enjoy swimming. As long as I can move, I'm happy.

Not to forget my family and friends. Those are the people who motivate me and build me up. God also motivates me and pushes me to make sense of my life. It's great to believe that there's a plan for me to follow or to even have a say in....

PHILOSOPHY

Like I mentioned I believe that there's a purpose why I'm here, why I do what I do and why I was put in exactly that spot where I am right now. I try to be open and positive and start every day new excited about what will come (of course that doesn't work all the time). I want to learn as much as I can and enjoy my life here on earth because despite of all that big mess which we're creating it's beautiful!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm new here but I think it's a great method to connect the countries and to bring people from all over the earth together in a way where you don't feel so much as a tourist but rather a friend when you visit a foreign country and stay on a "couch".
