Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Its a great way to connect with people from all over the world and in my opinion you can never learn and understand a culture from books, but from people. Im planning to move to either the Balkans or Caucasus for a couple of years some day, so Im very interested to get to know people, languages and culture - so far my knowledge is very little.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
From 2011-2019 I worked benevolently in a primary school and taught underprivileged children. I learned beekeeping with a group of friends of mine, in a pretty cool project thats connects environmental awareness with a practical trade and a lot of fun. the burning-man-festival-"franchise"
