ABOUT ME
Well, I'm 24 and interested in so many things.
First of all my academic studies must be mentioned because much time had to be spent for reading papers, learning and testing persons. Psychology is a great hobby of mine, that's because I voluntarily invest much energy in doing a good job! At the moment I'm working as a neuropsychologist in a clinic close to Dresden.
But of course my studies didn't mean everything to me: I love to spend my holiday in other countries meeting new people or visiting friends. Getting to know new perspectives on life means much to me. Besides I'm a great fan of independent music. I enjoy investing money in concerts, festivals or other cultural events like theater, cinema or art galleries. I'm also a diskjockey - in Germany it's called DJane -, willing to change each party into a "big thing" ;)
PHILOSOPHY
"My turning point was my pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela. It was then that I, who had dedicated most of my life to penetrate the 'secrets' of the universe, realized that there are no secrets. Life is and will always be a mystery." -Paulo Coelho
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
In March 2010 I had my first couchsurfing experience in Tampere, Finland. I really enjoyed having an interesting talk to such educated and hospitable persons. Furthermore, I spent two nights in Stockholm which was also a great thing. And finally my boyfriend and I visited Istanbul and met Michelle and Mustafa.
