CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world

ABOUT ME

I am the sunlight peeking in through the window in the early morning,
I am the waves that wash against your feet,
I am a snowflake that melts at your touch,
I am one with nature,

I am a hand offered in help,
I am the truthful and honest advice to a good friend,
I am empathy towards others,
I am compassionate,

I am taking on more than I can handle and completing the tasks anyway,
I am staying up late to meet a deadline,
I am committed to the cause,
I am hard-working,

I am hiking on glaciers,
I am conquering mountains,
I am kayaking on rushing rivers,
I am brave,

I am snowboarding in the icy rain in Norway,
I am surfing with the waves towering above my head in Brazil,
I am longboarding down endlessly descending roads in the Alps,
I am extreme,

I am cafes in Paris,
I am street art in Porto,
I am calamaris in Barcelona,
I am travelling,

I am climbing on rooftops,
I am swimming in the moonlight,
I am exploring the Old Town of Tallinn,
I am spontaneity,

I am old hats, I am high waisted jeans,
I am a yellow ukulele, I am indie rock,
I am Kubrick movies, I am Remarque's literature,
I am Mirjam-Kim

PHILOSOPHY

Live in the moment

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to travel and wish to visit as many places as I possibly can.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love couchsurfing and moreover I appriciate the friendly and supporting couchsurfing community. The openess and hospitality that complete strangers can welcome each other with still manages to baffle me. I enjoy making new friends all over the world through couchsurfing and it is making travelling more fun than it ever was before!

Interests

I am very active and always ready to plunge into something new. I think it is my unrelenting curiosity and fear of nothing that has led me to enjoy extreme sports. I snowboard, longboard, surf, skim, windsurf, wakeboard and am willing to do any other extreme sport that I have the possibility to try.

I also love reading books. I love to just lie on my bed all day, bathe in the sunlight coming in from the window concerning myself with nothing but the book that I'm holding.

Music, Movies, and Books

A Clockwork Orange is definitely one of the best films I have ever seen. I honestly think that this masterpiece by Kubrick might be the only film that is even better than the book that it's based on.

I love Robert Frosts poems. Nothing like his nature imagery and striking metaphors.

Music. I will never accept the fact that I won't be able to listen to the Doors live. I can never get enogh of the lullin sound of the xx. Lately I've been listening to artists from Scandinavia like Jenny Hval. And my one true love is Alex. I'll never get enough of his soundtrack of the Submarine.
