I just freely translated from german ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

And just fell in love with a philosophy in someone elses profile!! : "Verweile doch, Du bist so schön!" - Goethe

Sharing is caring and what goes around comes arround.

Couchsurfing is an awsome opportunity with the princible giving and taking. As a low budget traveler I can be as close as possible to the real live and the places I am traveling. Some things you can only experience, if you hang out with the people from there.
At the same time it is a community. I made good friends here. I am so grateful, now I would like to share the same welcome home.

Interests

Next to my job I worked in a union as a volunteer for a couple of years. I helped young people to recognize social and political contexts in Europe, knowing ther rights and getting a feeling of solidarity. Then, I took 4years time for traveling abroad. I wanted to know the world and learn different concepts of live. That's when I found my biggest interest in traveling the world, forrests, jungles, oceans, lakes, rivers, birds, international music, food, markets, foodmarkets ;) architectures, handcrafts and what I dont know yet.
It is magical, when you found a route and you follow it with the goal in your mind.
At the moment i am living settled again.
I am happy to share my home now after i was hosted many times and give back to the community! :) My home is your home, if you like to visit Germany.
But I will be travelling whenever I can!

I like to talk about the world and his brother, with good food, a beer, or just sitting silently next to each other on a park bench or watching life.
