About Me

ABOUT ME

puuh...it's always difficult to descripe yourself 'cause you can't say what you are like but at least what you think of yourself to be like. So here is what i think of me to be like:
I love playing and listening to music and, of course, I love travelling. I love to learn about other cultures, habits...
All in all I'm a very positive person who thinks that a day without laughing is a wasted day!

PHILOSOPHY

Glück entsteht oft durch Aufmerksamkeit in kleinen Dingen, Unglück oft durch Vernachlässigung kleiner Dinge.
(Wilhelm Busch)

That is German and means something like:

Fortune is often the result of taking care of the small things in life while misfortune is often the result of neglecting those small things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I 've never had any experiences with CS but I'm looking forward to open my doors for someone who needs it.
When I travelled through South Africa I usually stayed in Backpacker Hostels which were quite affordable there. But I hope I'll be able to find couches in Scotland, where I'm going to be from September 15th-October 1st.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing place where I have been so far is South Africa. It's definitely the most beautiful country I've ever been to.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can tell you a lot about the (partly very sad) history of my country, as I study History if you want me to. I also like doing sports and of course playing, listening and talking about music. But most of all I'd like to learn about YOU, your opinions and your country!
