CURRENT MISSION

I work at a cinema in my hometown, Rochdale.

ABOUT ME

I am punctual and committed. I am occasionally opinionated, I try to stay out of conflict unless it is directed at me for some unjustified reason. I like to try new things and I also like quiet times, e.g. going for walks, sitting down with a brew and watching a classic film or TV programme. Good personality and great sense of humour (If I find it funny).

PHILOSOPHY

When an opportunity comes, grab it with both hands!

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN

I think this website is a great opportunity not to just find a new way of getting accommodation, but to meet people and exchange life experiences. I have some great experiences so far and I have met some amazing people, to find out things about them and to share my experiences with them.

EXPERIENCE

I love and it's like an adventure - to meet new people from different backgrounds and stories to tell. I can't wait for more!

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I love films with a good story, especially historical ones. Music - I am an 80s fan, it was the decade I have earliest memories of. Books - not much of a book reader, I should though. The one was Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell, great and disturbing.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Working as a volunteer (twice!) in Africa and helping to change some people's lives in some way! I've also worked as a volunteer for 5 years at an organic farm in St. Vincent.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Learning new things from each other. A friend told me and I agree is that you never stop learn until the moment you die. Knowledge is power and you can do so much with it. It's endless!

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

My experiences and the things I've seen and done; exchanging these kind of things.
