About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live, accept and enjoy the coincidences and chances
ABOUT ME

I just finish my studies at drama school and enjoy getting to know new people, making new friends and love every kind of traveling.
Theatre, literature, movies, are a huge part of my life and I am always happy finding new inspirations from other people.
I identify myself often with characters or atmospheres and like the feeling getting touched by art.

I have a passion for languages and try to learn as much as I can of the huge variety of them!
I really like dancing (on my own or at partys)- that´s one way I can forget of all problems and leave stress behind.

I enjoy walking and observing and find details in people´s faces or the way they behave.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started cs 6 years ago and never regretted it.
It is such a great way to get to know other perspectives, cultures, life-styles. I am always courious how different lifes could be. Sometimes I forget that there are so many possibilities, so many decisions you can make in different ways. Because my own life is the best I know and makes sence in a way.
Cs is one opportunity to open myself and overthink things that seem to be "like that" or paths that are stucked.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sleeping under one of the hundred bridges in Venice, close to a restaurant where people talked the whole night in the kitchen.

Travelled to feel the cold and snow

Teach, Learn, Share

What makes your home, your country to YOUR motherland? Does something like this exist? Can you fix it geographically? People? Language? Food? Is it the city you were born? The city you raised? And what happens if we change countries, cities, languages, families break?
When do we feel our roots and how?
