An open-minded and friendly girl called Amelie, sometimes called Amy, sometimes called 艾丽 (ài lì).
I love forests, mountains, sunshine, cooking, hanging out and sharing stories. I'm open and interested in all people around me. Sometimes I like to be for myself, other times I'm great and funny company.
I'm curious and adventurous but not overly reckless: a combination which brings many little adventures into my life.

What I really try to do is to live attentively: pay attention to the smallest things in life, like a nicely shaped cloud or the smile of that one lady at the grocery store. I want to detect and cherish these small moments, make them matter. Usually, I'm struggling with that attitude as it's so tempting in my everyday life just to forget or ignore these small presents while worrying about seemingly important problems. So, live attentively, my friends!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a more true travel experince than hotel or hostel. It's a wonderful way to meet new people in unfamiliar places, to connect and share stories, to get to know other perspectives and attitudes. This way, one can explore a new country or city much deeper!
