I am ...
... Tina.
... clumsy.
... shy when I shouldn't be.
... bold when I shouldn't be.
... stubborn (at least that's what some people tell me. I refuse to believe them.)

I am not ...
... prepared.
... very athletic or musical, unfortunately.
... dogmatic.
... finished.

I love ...
... the sea. Everywhere. Always. Oh, and seagulls! I have an almost obscene seagull fetish.
... to pop bubble wrap. Makes me high.
... music. Not unconditionally though.
... sleeping.
... trains.
... sleeping on trains.
... to go and see the world.
... coming home.
... tea.
... sloths.
... spring, summer, fall, winter... and spring.

I hate ...
... alarm clocks.
... my procrastination problem.
... the second half of a bottle of beer. Actually, it's more like the last 3/4.
... mosquitoes. And the sound they make when they're flying close to my ear. Tiny bitches.
... feeling helpless.

I do ...
... make to-do-lists and ignore them afterwards.
... daydream.
... cry when watching sad movies.
... buy books just to put them into my shelf and not read them for ages.
... dance stupidly through my apartment when I'm alone.
... think museums are a strange concept.
... wish I could live forever.

I don't ...
... play an instrument.
... smoke.
... have a plan.
... think I would do EVERYTHING exactly the same if I could go back in time and relive my life. And I don't believe people who say they would.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Probably for many of the same reasons as everybody else on this site: To meet lovely people and to do things and discover places that I wouldn't have known about otherwise. But also to improve my sleeping-on-couches skills, obviously.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I guess it's amazing that I feel like I've done and seen quite a few amazing things in my life and still I don't know what to write into this box. Maybe it's -ahem- my sense of fairness that won't allow me to pick one experience over the others. Maybe not. Maybe one day I'll make a list of amazing things in my life. Lists are amazing.
