Spontaneious and optimistic!

I am a people person. I like to meet new people and to make new friends. I love to get to know cultures, places, food and every teeny tiny thing that cultural diversity has to offer. Life is a phenomenon. Just stay open-minded and say hi to the little coincidences that happen to you. You will see what it's good for.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I gave a hitchhiker a ride in the deepest jungle of Surinam. It turned out to be a life changing coincidence. We had great conversations and he told me about Couchsurfing. After surfing on his couch, I technically just moved in for the rest of my stay and we welcomed several other couchsurfers. I cannot tell you how happy I am about turning around and driving back to give him a tiny spot in a packed vehicle (it was barely half a seat for a 10 hour drive). But hey, what you give is what you get, no?

Interessen

I like the countryside and I enjoy being outside - be it biking or horseback riding in the woods.

I love being as minimalistic as possible. Having just a few things makes life much easier. Being a minimalist has made me very giving to other people. It is such a pleasure to give away things that you don't need if it makes them happy. It definitely makes me happy. Try it!

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I am open to many types of music! Please don't ask me what music I like, I really can't narrow it down. I don't think I have a special taste. But I welcome you to show me your preferred music. I like to be inspired.

Books: I read whatever falls into my hands by coincidence. Had a tiny free library in my neighborhood, which I loved. Too many choices overwhelm me and I end up with not making a decision at all. Favorite book: the hobbit, Tintenherz - just because they are beautifully written!

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Living close to the jungle in Surinam, South America! Changed my life, my point of view and lifestyle in so many ways!

Lehren, lernen, teilen

De kunst is om thuis te leven als of je op reis bent.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

My love of fruit and veg. If you are open to give it a try, I will be happy to cook for you or even prepare a raw vegan dish. I promise, it can be great!
