Easy-going, optimistic and always open to make new experiences, eat life with a big spoon! :)

My current state of mind is best expressed by a quote from the book/movie "Into the wild":

"So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more dangerous to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love travelling around the world... its nice to see beautiful places, but what makes a journey really special for me are the people I meet on the way... their is nothing more enriching than to learn about their points of view, culture, food, favorite music and movies... to share hopes and dreams and have a good time...:)

As I have been travelling for almost two years now, I unfortunatly couldn't receive people for a long time... but from november 2015 on I will be living in Berlin and hope that many come and visit me...:) Cause hosting is kind of travelling as well, if you can't go out into the world, you make the world coming to you...:)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I already met a lot of great people through CS and some of them even became good friends... Its a great chance to connect the world and overcome borders... we can make the world a better place by opening our minds, sharing, spreading love and forgetting about stereotypes...
