Please don't contact me, unless your profile is more or less complete!!! Couchsurfing isn't just a free hotel!!!
I open my house to foreigners! Thus, of course, I need to trust the people! Providing some personal details helps both sides to feel confident!

These weeks my mission is finding my way back into normal working life after 13 months of a great non-working time...aaahhh! I´ve made a sabbatical with a few travels, for example to Spain (Barcelona and Camino de Santiago), South America (Argentina, Chile, Colombia) and the Andaman Islands (India).

ABOUT
The following is a text I´ve written 3 years ago! I´ll adapt it soon. I think I grew up a bit ;-)

The things I lovelovelove are travelling, meeting new people and trying new things.
I think I´m an open-minded (person (with a quite stubborn part aswell...) and I prefer people, who are just as open as me. I share whatever I have with people I like. I need to laugh every day and enjoy people, who can see the funny part in the every-day-struggle of our boring every-day-life. I need humour and people, who love to think differently. Who are free in their mind and follow their own ideas. We are free - and shouldn´t waste our time, knowledge and possibilities by only following rules :)
Ignorant and convinient people don't appeal me that much!!!

PHILOSOPHY

Make sure you´re having plenty of dreams!!! (just in case reality destroys some of them ;-))
Live and learn!!!
THINK POSITIVE ! REALITY IS A CREATION OF YOUR MIND :-)
- although in day to day life it can be really hard...
I prefer vegetarian/ vegan and organic food!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I heard about CS while I was travelling in panama 2009, I got member and had my first guest just 2 weeks after. I love the idea!
It´s for people who don´t prefer hotels and all the unnecessary things along with it. It´s for people who are flexible enough to just meet somebody and see what will happen!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Every now and then! I mostly hosted and only rarely surfed! I´d love to travel more (as I used to when I was younger ;-), before working-life ....well)

Music, Movies, and Books

As a have an incredibly bad memory, I´d need some time to make this list...
favourites: "Momo" of Michael Ende. "Shantaram".
Right now I´m "fighting" with a book of Erich KÃstner.

I almost like any kind of music (apart from ordinary disco-beats, which are just unuseful and don´t make me dance;-). So I prefer Ska-Punk, Indie, Reggae, Balcan Music, Patrice, Manu Chao, Latin Music in gereral, Pearl Jam, and so on....
I´m quoting: "Good music I dance. No good music I not dance" (Does anybody know where I picked up this saying?!?!)
