About Me

Who likes to take pictures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To be honest I joined it so I can meet new people and host different people from the world. But three things happend because I was not able to use CS that much.

1. I lived in Kiel which is a small city and mostly people don't come there to visit. And if they come to Kieler Woche (the only big summer festival in our city), they are usually there to get wasted and party hard. Not to have a nice conversation or spend time.

2. I lived more or less all the time in a student hostel where the rooms were not that big usually. So people most probably did not like the arrangement and never asked.

3. I joined a student organisation AIESEC. Because of that I had always friends and guests from everywhere and I was always having a place to sleep nearly everywhere in the world due too that network. So I never got to use couch surfing. But my own room was never free for more then 2 months in a row. So hosting experience really good but all outside CS.

But now I am nearly out of it and I have my own place so I thought to have a go at it. Let's see what it brings and how many new people I get to know.

Interests

Travel, meet new people, make moments that I can look at after a long time and smile. Trainings and facilitation (personal development), share stories, do something new and adventurous. Cook to make life a bit more spicy. and Last but not the least "Danceeeeee ".
Oh Yeah I love to dance :)

P.s my latest interest is Improv theater.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveled to Germany and lived for 8 Years here and Learned the language.

Searched for my true passion no matter how much time and failures it took me.

How to love and respect someone unconditionally.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Well I am traveller and a story teller. I will not let you get bored as I have a lot of stories to tell. I am a good cook so I can make you something from my own country.
I am good in listening so I am also interested what you want to share with me.

And I cook :). So if you want a South Asian dish on your table then allow me to fall on your couch.
