CURRENT MISSION

finding a moment of spare time to go on discovering the planet....

ABOUT ME

most curious person on earth :D
There is way too little time to do and see everything I'd like to do... :(

PHILOSOPHY

Be understanding - if someone pisses you off they probably had a bad day... Well, it's really hard to make me angry, never happens, seriously! Have fun and enjoy life - and sometimes be a little lazy and relax :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just started in January 2010, but I've already had people crashing on my couch in Germany and shown them my country - however this was privately organized or through AIESEC - the largest international student organization world wide.
I have hosted for two Canadian girls for a week and a Mongolian student for 4 days.
Also, I showed two American students, who I knew from my study abroad semester in New Orleans, Germany in a crash tour of one week.
By now I have hosted a bit, too. So you can sleep on my couch and if you are lucky I have time to show you around and maybe cook something.

Interests

Everything??? Really, that I cannot narrow down at all. I love reading - I could spend the whole day reading - but then I would miss out on all the cool people all over the world. So, traveling is another thing I like a lot. I like to teach, hence my future profession will be high school teacher (English and computer science). I love playing games and relaxing with friends, just as well as I love to go dancing.
Also, I used to be an active AIESECer :D

Music, Movies, and Books

Douglas Adams: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Nothing can top this book!

"He attacked everything in life with a mix of extraordinary genius and naive incompetence, and it was often difficult to tell which was which."

"I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be."

"Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so."

Otherwise I'm not very set... I'm kind of a book worm and I love Supernatural and Community, the TV shows.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Wow... I've already seen a lot... Things I'll never forget: Hiking through the Grand Canyon, going to the beaches in Australia, my study abroad semester in New Orleans... The general hospitality that you can find all over the world, e.g. in Turkey or Japan or ...

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm pretty knowledgeable about Germany... Otherwise travel experiences are pretty subjective. Ah, well, my knowledge about Germany is very subjective, too :D
