About Me

ABOUT ME

I´m so grateful for the opportunity to live in this fascinatingly beautiful and complicated world and I´m trying to make the best of it. I´m an easygoing, open-minded and susceptible kind of person. People love talking to me, cause I´m a perceptive listener and never look down on anyone. My biggest aim is to live an unforgetable life and never stop learning something new.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's the easiest way how to make new friends while travilling and to genuinely experience the every-day life in any country that you're visiting. The best things are always for free! :)

Interests

I´ve got so many hobbies and so little time!
I'd like to learn every language of the world (right now, I'm trying to master German and Swedish).
I'm participating in a local Green party and trying to do a bit of political activism to make this unjust world a better place.
When I get sad, I love to write short stories and poems.
I'm keen on endlessly wandering and learning new things about the world, people and myself.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love movies such as 12 Angry Men, Into the Wild, Perks of Being a Wallflower, Big Fish, Finding Neverland, The Graduate, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind etc.
My favourite music genre is indie folk and rock. The lyrics are really important to me. Right now I´m crazy about The National, Mark Kozelek Tom Waits and Leonard Cohen. I also love classical music, especially Janáček, Schostakowitsch and Liszt.
As for books, I´m kind of a bookworm, who could talk about them for hours :). I´ve read almost all classics, but I also love a modern literature such as Chuck Palahniuk and Haruki Murakami.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cycling from Berlin to Copenhagen on my own.
Swimming in a freezing cold finnish lake after being almost baked in sauna
