What friends say:
A happy & grateful human being ...lived many different places around the World, has realized dreams of her childhood & enjoys every single day to wake up and have a whole new day ahead of her!

From me/in my words:
I enjoy cooking, actually I love it ...a nice dinner with a tasty & healthy home cooked meal & a good bottle of wine ...just to roundup the day!
...inviting friends over, cook for them & enjoy each others company while we enjoy good food & wine ...

I love my family (family is for ever), I adore my nephew & always look forward to meet them!

Skiing, golfing & mountain biking are my favorite sports! Traveling is the best thing to stop my itchy feet ...while traveling i like to hike/trek, see sights, meet the locals & learn about the cultures, natives, religions & the passed times. I can hang out on the beach as well, but just not to much! ;-) A healthy mix is the key! I like backpacking & the de Luxe version alike, but while backpacking you get the bigger picture of places!

Music moves me emotionally & physically, I like live/unplugged music best & to go to concerts/shows/musicals is a great way to spend a night! My music taste starts with Hard Rock/Rock goes to easy listening, further to new Jazz & Soul, Groove, RnB, Pop & even to Classic like Chopin …simply eclectic! ...always open to discover new ear worms!

I enjoy lazy days (once in a while)...comfy on the sofa, reading (reading is a relaxing way to learn/educate your self) & watch a documentary on TV ...this sounds like a perfect rainy day coverage to me!

I'm a honest, smart, loyal, open minded, easy going, passionate, independent, patient, punctually, flexible, spontaneous, tidy, the never give up & positive kind of type & a happy spirit ...

I'm tidy ...I mean tidy, tidy ...sometimes to much for my own sake ( but i try to relax more) ...
I don't like gardening, but I like great looking gardens! I don't like deep fried/fatty food! I don't eat McDonalds or fast food except Street food like in Asia/especially in Thailand!
I don't like negative people! I'm spiritual & leaning towards the philosophy of Buddhism.
I'm not much in politics but i inform myself & keep up-to-date.

PHILOSOPHY

Live Life! Love Life!
Let a smile be your umbrella!
To think only the best, to work only the best & expect only the best!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
