About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Understand the Northern Irish accent

ABOUT ME

Oh, I hate that part! I honestly don't know... people keep saying I am pretty stubborn, impatient, shy, clumsy and incredibly slow when it comes to understand the most basic things in life - this is as bad as it gets!
BUT (!!!)
At the same time I'm also very open-minded and friendly, uncomplicated, ambitious and...awesome!
I'm always up for a laugh as I don't really like to take myself and the world around me too serious.

PHILOSOPHY

I only dance when I'm drunk.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I still need to work that out.

Interests

SPORTS (Running, Climbing, Swimming), baking, TRAVELS, reading books, MUSIC, concerts and theatre, FOOD (and chocolate of course)... and sleeping, definitely!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love books by German authors (Boell is one of my favourites) as well as some Norwegian and Irish writers. But Hemingway is also great.

Music is very important to me, no matter whether it is electronic stuff, postcore or a singer/songwriter - as long as I can listen to it all the time (I literally mean ALL THE TIME...if you'd look out for me I'd probably always be the weirdo with the headphones on her ears)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went swimming with elephants in Laos...it was amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know that a lot of people think that Germans have no sense of humour - but we do! You'll see :)
