Interview about couchsurfing on the local television: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNnQS3mhdJA I start to get a lot of requests from surfers without a reference and without any information in their profiles. Not even the request shows some more respect and arent personal at all, just basic information: "that and that day, can you host?" Just to let you know that im NOT WILLING TO ACCEPT such requests anymore. I know that when traveling, there often is not much time to write a nice personal message. Thats why you should at least fill in your profile. Otherwise, im sorry. It's a pitty that i had to start the part about me so negative and i'm sorry for that. So let's get back to topic - If you read my name, you could get the feeling that i am rich, but i have to disapoint you. It's just my real family name that i share with my father and my fathers father and so on. Now, when you know that i'm not any kind of self-important millionaire, i can tell you even more. :) I'm a simple daydreamer and chronic optimist. Trying to enjoy the little things like a small child and make wise decisions like an old philosopher. A romantic soul with the heart of a rebel. I value friendship and freedom the most, but don't like to be tied by pointless orders and restrictions. And i wouldn't be able to be like this, if i hadn't a strong base in my faith in something above us. I was raised to call it God, but for a lot of people the name can vary (karma is very popular these days) although we still believe in the same.
