CURRENT MISSION

To successfully introduce my husband to the cs so that we can host thousands of surfers!!!

ABOUT ME

Finally a coming back to CS after my first year of getting settled in Australia, where I met my husband (scaaared of CS). So now the mission is to unscare him. Would you help me? :o)

How are we? Find thanks and you! Haha Well Claudia is telling jokes all the time and most of them are not funny but she is happy if you are happy. She studied engineering in France and Germany and then spent a long time in an amazing kibbutz in Israel where she decided she would immigrate and live FOR EVER! So she planned a 6-month stay in Australia to make heaps of money and start a new life in Israel.

BUT What happened? After a month of struggling with jobs in Perth, she met Chris. They dated, she found more stable jobs, they had lots of fun and drinks and few months latr they were married, had signed spouse visa application forms and started a business partnership together!

So that is us: We are inseparable. For some it's cute, for others is yak... We work together most of the time. Chris is a baker at night and Claudia is a self-employed housekeeper during the day and a wellnes coach during free time.

Chris loves his cricket. Claudia has no clue on the screen when it is on..

Chris has never travelled anywhere else than Bali! Claudia has been everyelse than Bali!

We love Perth. Finally about to settle down in a new bigger house and here we go CS! Meetings and hosting all year round! That should be possible (if you help me convince Chris) from March!!!! Yeeeeh!

PHILOSOPHY

Love can make anything happen

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I first heard about CS during my trip in Middle East. I surfed lots of couches, beds and tents in Israel and Sinai, when I was not sleeping in nature or streets...

When moving to Hamburg I could only host three times since my flatmates were not really into couchsurfing.

When I moved to Nantes in France it was incredible! I met my 2 flatmates through cs and we hosted almost every weekend! And we attended so many meetings and organised some at our place. So good times! I miss it!!!

But soon guys. Very soon, we'll be back! And I am planning to organise plenty of sports events! Because hey! Too much Hungry Jacks and Beer! Time to apologize with our bodies!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Claudia: Hosting, surfing, meetings all awesome.
Chris: One meeting so far! We gotta work on that!

Interests

Reading, hiking in the nature, farming, organizing parties and trips, playing any kind of games!
I try to find beauty in small things: having a walk in an unfamiliar place, eating the last traces of cake paste before it is cooked, talking with somebody sitting on a bench in a parc...

I also enjoy preparing B-day parties, most of the time surprises.

My last trips have been so far hitchhiking -camping trips in Sweden, Norway, Germany and Turkey!!!

Music, Movies, and Books

Many books from Coehlo
Some from Stephen King
Any book from Dominique Lapierre about India, Israel (City of Joy, O Jerusalem)

Any kinds of music. I love dancing! I actually dont really know how to dance but what it's most important is to have fun, isn't it?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ive slept outdoors in cities and once was stopped by the policemen in Poland!

I was in Peru during the earthquake last summer! It was crazy!

I hiked alone in the north of Israel in the middle of nowhere for 2 weeks by myself without a cell phone or map!

I got married on last September!! And am currently getting divorced... :-P

I hitch hiked by myself from Hamburg to Rotterdam!!!

I'm planning a one-month-Easten-Europe-trip this August!!! maybe just by myself... :-)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach languages (Spanish and French) and also some games...

I expect from the CS to help me to understand people: their feelings, their choices, their reactions... I'm still a beginner in these things.

I would love to learn how to make a fire!
