ABOUT ME

I don't like describing myself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just like the majority. I host people and surf couches. I do not aspire to become an ambassador.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've only had 4 experiences so far which were quite good. I've hosted a guy from Cali. and surfed a couch in Munich, Paris and Thessaloniki. Oh, I should perhaps mention that 2 people did NOT leave me a feedback for whatever reason which I find exteremely rude. The guy from Cali. also didn't leave me a feedback but he is excused because we've become real friends ever since.

Music, Movies, and Books

Ok, to avoid rambling, I will tell you what kind of music I do NOT like: Punk rock, heavy metal, rap.

I don't read a lot of books, simply because I don't have the time. However, the last books I read included Ron Chernow's "Waschington - A Life" which was brilliant and Dan Brown's Lost Symbol which was horrible and excruciating to read.

What I do read on a weekly basis is my favorite magazine entitled "The New Yorker".

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Received a phone call by the faculty director of the University of Heidelberg to be told that I was among the 10 best applicants ^_^

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach English as a Private Tutor.
