I really love that Couchsurfing brings people from different backgrounds together. I met my husband through Couchsurfing! I like to stay with local people because they know the stories about a place, the best food spots around and I love getting a glimpse of their daily life. As a surfer, I will bring a host present, cook something vegan/German for you or simply tell you some anecdotes if you want to hear them, share thoughts and a bottle of wine.

I like whatever music makes me happy and feels good in the situation. With books I really need the diversity and variety - so don't ask for a special genre. King, Kafka, Agatha Christie, Orwell. Fiction, non-fiction, autobiographies, poems. Usually, I read at least one paper from a science mag. I also enjoy reading magazines and newspaper articles. M favorite newspaper is the NYT because of the daily crossword puzzle.
