Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
enjoy simply being in here and now :)
ABOUT ME
Willing to taste as much of world and life as possible(since I doubt my ever understanding its truth), but also contribute to its questions, by trying to give, rather than find, answers. Seeking for deep(or more shallow;) conversations and loving human moments. In general cheerful,jumping on photos! Trying to overcome my limits(except if shy:)), and my fears(though still a bit stressed). Don't like people not caring about the ones next to them, would like to influence them positively:D.
PHILOSOPHY
Learn and earn
Give and live
(sounds deep, big challenge :-)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
hmm... I have mostly been visiting people around EU within and out of CS and hanging out with passers-by in Athens showing a couple of "real"sights. Without having a place of my own I couldn't host, but hopefully soon, as soon as we get settled down in our WG (flatsharing) in Berlin and our guest room is free, I would love to finally also have some international hosts every now and then :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
well, still haven't had a lot, but up to now I have met through CS some of the craziest people in my life:
the well-meant craziness, the one where you get to write a poem half-half in different languages and finally get the most cohesive and lyric verses when you translate it, the one you get to learn the basics of spanish and teach the basics of greek in 3 days, the one where you meet a turkish CS friend for a coffee and he solves your questions on what to do in your life next :D purely human touch
Interests
-Cinema: I've finally just starting studying it!
-Theatre: love being on stage (although haven't been for a long time) and directing others on stage, or participating in any way in a performance* ok, watching a play or two sometimes as well ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
hmm... i have no such "striking" moments- i always like to live my experiences as a whole and remember small moments or bigger ones, and for sure from both sides, better and worse, as life is ;)
Teach, Learn, Share
Discussing and exploring together is by itself sharing and learning and teaching:)
I could also come up with some idea for some kind of improvisation, may it be a game or invisible theatre on the street or filming some stupid but true moment we have.
Want to learn local language basics, cooking and traditional skills from people I meet, and open to any other interesting skills, such as music!
