About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Let the inner child out as long as you still can!

ABOUT ME

People who don't know me think I'm shy and should talk more. People who know me think I should talk less. I sometimes laugh like a pig and am addicted to Oreos. I am obsessed with my study but also with procrastination.
Daydreaming, eating cookies, drawing flowers on everything, arriving way too early, drinking cheap wine, taking pictures of smileys, stopping for snails, pretending to be an oh-so-good person, writing, travelling, playing Volleyball, reading a book/watching a movie and crying because it is just that good, performing weirdly to the lyrics of a song and losing my contact lenses and searching for them all over the place are my finest hobbies.

PHILOSOPHY

I try following the Golden Rule.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live in Berlin at the moment, but wanderlust is gripping me tight. I would love to meet amazing people through either hosting them or crashing at their places.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Not yet applicable, but some of my friends are in love with it, so I will give it a try. Also, I am mostly broke as hell.

Interests

Cookies. LAHWF awkward moments. Sports. Weird but lovable movies. Places to go before you die. Interesting stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Season's first snow, first spring flower, the smile of a child, the smell after the rain has ended. I know it's cheesy, but I'd rather see this as something amazing than never experiencing anything because of high hopes.

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach English now and then. I like voluntary services. I have worked at an animal rescue shelter, for Amnesty International and starred as an actress in 48 hours movie project.
