About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Giving a sort of settled down life another try after having exchanged a well paying job and fancy apartment for a one way ticket to India and from there on a journey here and there for more than 2 years.

Doing what I want to and find important and seeing where that will take me.

ABOUT ME

I am a very calm and relaxed person.
I honour myself, so if I feel tired I will sleep, if I observe an injustice I will speak up, if I want to hug you I will ask to hug you, etc :)
I want to bring out the best in everyone so we can become the greatest community possible! We are all in this together and not apart from each other.

PHILOSOPHY

Love yourself and others with all of your/their mistakes.
Try to do as much good as possible while inflicting as little harm as possible.
One of the greatest gifts we can give to eachother is truely being present and to learn how to really listen and relate.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The kindness of every single one of my hosts has been heartwarming :')
The reality of stepping into someones home and their community has provided experiences that have enriched my life ways that are hard to put into words or measure.
How some of the stays came to be and magically evolved is beyond me!

Not many experiences hosting apart from providing shelter for 4 stranded americans while they got their car fixed :D

Interests

I am most interested in making real connections with the people I meet, understand them, accept them, learn from their views and feelings.

If somebofy is interested in my experiences I live to share stories and the conclusions I have come to based on my personal experiments and research.

I try to live my life based on morals, even, er especially when it means it is less convenient for me.
Of course I understand that this process is constantly developing, we are all here to learn and develop :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Planting Trees in a vegan Community for reforestation in India.

Get arrested for blocking a coal mine as part of a Climate Camp.

Travelling to Japan over land and sea to avoid taking a flight.

Living from volunteering and a minimalist lifestyle.

Maybe saying hi to ET.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am interested in everything! I might not become a master in few things this way, but I'd rather be a dilletant many different areas.

If I notice something is broken around your place and I can fix it, chances are I will fix it ;)

I can teach about concepts of mindfulness, meditation, massage, and give Yoga or Kung Fu instructions.

Always love to share travel stories, or experiences from activism, my spiritual journey or yummy food.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm willing to share my experiences and thoughts on anything if you are interested, as well as lend a hand with whatever needs support and treat you to some tasty (vegan) food :)
