ABOUT ME

Right now I'm studying Russian and Chinese Studies in the South of Germany.

I'm open-minded, easy-going and love to meet new people. I care for people and where help is needed I do what I can. I like to laugh and make people laugh:)
I follow my intuition and normally doesn't let fear stop me from doing what I dream of. I'm a family person and enjoy cosy movie nights at home as much as going out for salsa. I like other languages and cultures and other countries' history.
I'm a very global person, I'm half-German, half-Brazilian, but my ancestors go back to the Carribean, France and Africa. So I like to listen other peoples stories and how they got where they are now.

PHILOSOPHY

"If we know the past, and live the present, can we dream the future?" (Truman Capote)

Just do it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting new, interesting people. I didn't use couchsurfing much yet, as I have so much family around the world, that I often already have a place to crash^^
Unfortunatly I don't have a couch to offer myself, only when I'm outta town..

Interests

I love Salsa - meeting nice people, dancing - but without drinking alcohol. I never touched Alcohol in my life and it will not change just because you ask me to;)
As popcorn is one of my favourite food and I enjoy watching movies, I try to go the cinema as often as possible.
Besides that I like to read and write short stories.
I can be quite a thinker and I like to discuss any topic deeply and I like to hear other peoples opinions. My favourite topics are history, social questions, movies, books...
