ABOUT ME

I am a calm and appreciative person who loves the good things of life: soulfood, interesting people, music, beauty, dancing, books, movies, landscape - everything that touches my senses and soul.

PHILOSOPHY

don't take yourself and your surrounding too serious

be self-reflective or you might lose touch with yourself

think about what is important to you and try actively to adapt your life to it

don't limit yourself through entrenched mindsets and be compassionate to those around you

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently traveling / doing research in Southern Europe and don´t have a base where I can host anyone. As soon as I will have a home again, you are welcome to visit, until then I am dependent on your hospitality :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been hosted by many amazing people in Spain, Greece, Italy, France, Portugal, Belgium, Netherlands, USA. And have hosted a few people in my old flat in Maastricht. Both organised through couchsurfing and through random encounters in the non-digital world.

兴趣

Obviously travelling and meeting new people, getting new impressions (guess that is what connects most of us CSers). Otherwise I just try to have a good time and to make most of it: enjoy my given time, connect with inspiring people/organizations/ideas & reflect myself and my surrounding.

Meditation
Getting into touch with Nature
Outdoor Sports: Climbing, Hiking, Biking, Rafting, etc.
