my personal goals in life are humility and wisdom. everything I do brings me closer to that goal. i want to get to know foreign cultures and learn as much as i can from everyone. the only thing nobody can take away from you are the things that you give. i like conversations, wine, books, laughing, dancing and sports. i'm not complicated really, nothing special about me.
Interested in Adventure Sports

Fluent in German
Learning Arabic (Morocco)
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
life is beautiful. when i am 80 i want to cook and invite friends over to chat about recent topics as well as memories. i have 60 years ahead to build memories with people. CS is perfect for getting to know the friends i will have come over for a meal in 60 years. you could be one of them ;)
