Because I love meeting new people and staying with locals enriches the experience of a new place! When I'm home I offer a couch and/or a mattress in a small room to meet people from anywhere in the world and offer them the same as I appreciate to receive while travelling myself. I've registered to couchsurfing in 2014 but have only just started actually using it and I'm very much looking forward to exploring the couchsurfing world!

For books I generally go either for fantasy or the simple but philosophical ones (e.g. Michael Ende, Roald Dahl, Antoine de Saint-Exupery, Astrid Lindgren etc.). I most like fantasy films (e.g. lotr) but also some action and humour or a film that makes you ponder for a while. And music... a bit of everything, always depending on my mood. I sing in a classical choir and in a Duo with someone playing the double bass which is more jazzy and pop.
