About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learning about donkey raising - dreaming about a community house & donkey hiking project

ABOUT ME

open-minded person who is basically interested in everything; I studied anthropology for I like watching people, trying to understand their lives and realities; open to experience the extraordinary; like to cook and celebrate food; good at organising ;)curious
can feel happy about things which I have planned and never even pursued just because I was looking forward so much that I almost feel like I experienced it in real....
For the rest of my personality we have to meet ;)

PHILOSOPHY

If you long for nothing, you will not miss anything. You will only miss longing for something.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

had many nice experiences staying with random people at random places. want to continue and give something back as well

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not surfed a lot with CS, but I had the best experiences when staying with friendly hosts I met in various circumstances: Filipino tribal "chiefs", farmers in rural Tanzania etc. The experiences you gain when staying with people in their homes is unique and the conversations you can have precious, which is why I want to collect as many of them as possible.

Interests

photography, oriental cooking, rooftops, walking, peace and conflict studies, gardening, trying to understand the life of people who are different from me in any way...
