Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had some wonderful experiences Couchsurfing in France during the summers of 2014 and 2015. I visited and surfed in Corsica, Brittany, and Normandy, Toulouse, and Verdun, and they were all wonderful experiences with very cool people.

For me, traveling is not only about seeing new things but also about meeting new people in new cultures and expanding my own view of the world through the people I meet in it.

"How many goodly creatures are there here!
How beauteous mankind is!
O brave new world,
That has such people in it!"

Interessen

I love spending time outdoors, learning the names of trees and flowers, reading classic literature, studying languages and philosophy, and indulging in conversations with friends, old and new.
