ABOUT ME
i loooove travelling and experience first hand. there's so much to explore so different from 'the german' way and a lot i can learn and also teach.
on the one hand i love nature, enjoy being alone and having time to think but i'm also addicted to big cities, crowds and watching people
PHILOSOPHY
.. you can't know if you haven't tried...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've hosted a couple of people. I did couchsurf, too. I thought it was a lot more stressful than hosting, though. have met really lovely and kind people on the way, though.

Music, Movies, and Books
books: exodus, the alchimist, demian
music: depends on my mood.. and the country i'm in... not so much a fan of mainstream music.
movies: i watch them. and then i forget them. and then i happen to watch them again and i'm constantly thinking:..wait a moment..i know that one..?
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
went on a 69km bicycle tour from Dar es Salaam to Bagamonyo during rush hour after sunset. 4 people, 3 bikes (after one tire burst) and 1 light. it was crazy!! didn't know that a butt could hurt so much. but i'd to it again! :)
Teach, Learn, Share
could teach ya how to make beaded or crochet jewelry, or knit beanies :) i'm also a champ in thermodynamics. anybody need a tutor?
and for myself, i wished someone taught me how to weld! welding is awesome!!!
What I Can Share with Hosts
i studied in france and friends tried to teach me how to cook. i'm still far from amazing but one or the other dish is eatable and the recipe worth passing on. i bet you always wanted to know how to make french crêpes? or brasilian pralinés? ;)
