CURRENT MISSION

to find out who i am and where i am going, to open my mind, to learn many languages to be able to talk with people from all over the world

ABOUT ME

I think i'm an open-minded person, peaceful and friendly (not always, but i try -- ... actually i'm extremely moody... and when i have a bad day just save yourself as fast as possible!!! ;), but also shy, like to travel and sleep outside and walking and talking, biking, swimming and listening to the waves, enjoy nature and quiet but also love music and dancing, need to step over the edges from time to time, sometimes crazy and stupid, but in general just trying to be authentic and sincere with myself --- which is not always the easiest way :)

PHILOSOPHY

*** Life is what goes on
while you are making other plans ***

"Glück ist ein Schmetterling.
Jag ihm nach und er entwischt dir.
Setz dich hin und er lässt sich auf deiner Schulter nieder." (Anthony de Mello) (danke Sarah***)

against all kind of arrogance
against all kind of exploitation
against needless materialism

"Beaucoup de choses sont impossible jusqu'à ce qu'on les fasse." (Le soleil au-dessus des nuages)

"Anywhere you'll ever go,
everyone you'll ever know,
you may never find it.
Everyone you'll ever see,
anyone you chose to be -
how you look will decide
what you see." (A-ha, White canvas)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
