HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I participate by hosting and visiting. But I guess at the moment there are more possibilities to host then to travel. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I worked in the student organisation AIESEC and it was sometimes like couchsurfing itself. People call you who you never met before and ask to stay in your place. I was on a conference in Juli 2006. There I met a guy who had visit from a cousin from Syria. And because the conference wasnt much of interest for him, I invited him to stay at my place until the conference was finished... he was a member at couchsurfing.com as well :-) The world is getting smaller and smaller.

I listen to every kind of music, especially Billy Joel, Madonna and Robbie Williams. Lately I became a fan of piano music as it is perfect for relaxing in the evenings after work while reading a book. And there are a lot of books to read which I like. For example I do like thrillers and crime stories, fantasy (e.g. Neil Gaiman) or just love stories (Pride and prejudice). My favourite book though is from Goethe and it is called Die Leiden des jungen Werther.I love watching movies, and my favourite ones are at the moment Pirates of the Carribean and Pride and Prejudice.
