ABOUT ME

German lady with a thing both for Eastern Europe and luso-brazilian world. Due to work and a small child i haven't been travelling much, but when i get the chance i love to do couchsurfing! It's great to meet very interesting people and get a peek of different lifestyles. I love languages, cooking, philosophical conversations and stumbling into random new places. Travelling brings colour into my life!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I enjoy both surfing and hosting when i get the chance to. It's the best way of travelling :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Very positive. Not many other ways these days come to my mind where you can experience such a load of generosity and goodwill from strangers :)

Interests

One of the things I like most - apart from the other stuff that is nice when you find the time (eating, dancing, being outside, talking, movies) - is learning languages. It's my passion! Also I really like to hear stories and histories about places I'm visiting, family history....

Music, Movies, and Books

No time for reading :(( But I have enjoyed Paul Auster, Zadie Smith, loved Anna Karenina by Tolstoj. Love movies: One of my favorite is The Royal Tenenbaums (and many others by Wes Anderson), Pedro Almodovar, David Lynch, Zazie dans le metro

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Vistula river at night with beavers, studying some IT basics in my 30s, Berlin at night in my 20s, Brazil - Pantanal nature!

Teach, Learn, Share

Learning is one of my favourite activities in life :) be it languages, cooking, peoples' (hi)stories, about life in other countries, new sports... What I can teach you... decent salad dressings, and that not all Germans are reserved, humourless and over-punctual... ;)
