CURRENT MISSION

life live to the fullest

ABOUT ME

Well, I guess I try to make the best of everything!

I love my jobs, like to be versatile and passionate and focussed in what I do. I fancy to hang out with interesting, open minded, impartial people, and I reconn I learned a lot about live & about different cultures during my travels. Travelling is the real school of life in my point of view.
Since a couple of years I arranged that I travel every year a couple of months.
So I have to work hard during the year to make that come true... :)

Travelling also influenced my live job wise, as I decided a couple of years ago that I'd like to have more international contacts, so I started to teach german as a foreign language, which is always good fun and I also did a training to become an crosscultural trainer. LOVE IT! :)

PHILOSOPHY

Richness of mind

If you can dream it, you can do it. Start now!

Vive la difference

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, I can list them up, but at the end of the day its all about
the interaction with people.

But of course I enjoyed:
- swimming with wild dolphins
- parachuting
- living in the wilderness with downshifters
- holding a new born baby in Afrika
- surviving a sip of water with the sign "zyankali"
- my first meal after six fasting days during the "overland track" and so on...

but quite often it's the simple things in live witch touches my heart. Some meetings with people leave marks and influenced my live in a sustained manner... :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm convinced you learn from EVERY contact if you stay open,
interested and curious.
