Curious, careful and unconventional. Like listen to music and to see new things. Currently discovering the definition of open-mindedness, because many people here on cs declare that attitude (and some just wish to be). Love is all we need, but sometimes we mean something else. 🫀☯️ Happiness is even more real when shared 🌞 My photographers page: https://www.instagram.com/cs.ph0t0/ https://model-kartei.de/sedcards/fotograf/370041/

*Update: Not hosting at the moment* I'm Adriana. Some of my friends call me Daria. Chose either one, whichever is easier in your mother tongue. So more about me... My political views are what you would call "links-grün versifft" in German, which is basically a slur for people who have progressive left-wing attitudes, support queer inclusive feminist views and care about issues like climate change and support for refugees. The historical background is very different, but I guess you could say "woke" in English. 🏳️‍🌈 Professionally I am a social worker specialized in mental health and disability. 🦽 I also do a lot of volunteering with a German scout organization and other stuff related to helping people suffering from mental health issues and addictions. Some of the activities I enjoy, but don't do regularly, are: - visiting art museums and galleries - going to aquariums - discussing politics - reading books & listening to audiobooks - watching stand-up comedy and satire - nature fotography - drawing portraits - singing karaoke - dancing at gothic clubs - going to Anime conventions - writing slam poetry - all outdoor activities including hiking, cycling, swimming, rock climbing, skiing - road trips and traveling in general - practising yoga - going to the gym - handicrafts like knitting, sewing and diamond painting - learning new languages ... I am neurodivergent, so I am a bit different in the way I function from other people, e.g. - I don't like small talk much, I like connecting on a deeper level and tend to overshare. - Even though I might seem quite active and talkative, I am highly sensitive, introverted and need a lot of "me time" and rest in general to recover from activities and social encounters. I might be somewhat limited in the activities I can join you in. I am also very sensitive to light, sounds and changes in weather, so it is difficult to predict my energy levels.🪫 - I have some special interests which currently include everything related to J.R.R. Tolkien (author of The Lord of The Rings). Vegetarian/vegan consumption and a sustainable lifestyle are important to me. 🌱 I don't smoke or drink, but you are free to do so outside. If you want to get me a gift, please no chocolate or alcohol. I'll just pass it on. I was raised in a Christian household and I believe in God, but I am not going to try to convince anyone to change their worldviews. I welcome people from all countries, backgrounds, cultures, religious beliefs etc. BUT please do not bother requesting a stay with me if you are against rights for the women and the LGBTQIA* community or you hold abelist views. Last but not least: This is not a dating platform and I have a boyfriend in Germany. Please respect my boundaries or I will report you on CS and kick you out!

Hi, I'm Simone. *** From May 2026 living in Hohenwettersbach, a beautiful mountain village near Karlsruhe, Germany. Be aware that it is a 40 min ride by bus/tram from Karlsruhe, very beautiful located in nature. :) Looking forward to meeting you ☺️🙏 *** If I had to describe myself, I would say I'm a calm, spontaneous, open-minded woman with a traveling soul, curious to explore the world and its people, looking for the stillness behind the everchanging world. With the decision to live and travel in my campervan a few years back, my life has shifted. I finally lived my dream of combining work and travel, creating a self-determined and free life that enfolds out of my inner self. I became satisfied with a minimalistic and natural lifestyle, having more time and energy on my dreams and goals in life. Yoga, meditation and writing have are important tools for me to connect with myself and to create my life out of a truthful and intuitive power. My passion: creating beautiful wholesome meals :) noubomisou.com Instagram: @noubomisou

I strive to empower all living beings, irrespective of their past or life circumstances, by fostering a loving, inclusive, and supportive environment where they can thrive and reach their full potential, while also protecting the planet. Everyone in our household is vegan and it's important to us that no non-vegan food finds its way into our kitchen. If that's okay with you, you are welcome.
