CURRENT MISSION

making other people bewelcome in my world! harharhar!

ABOUT ME

I am outgoing and (often) resting in myself at the same time. I'm easy to get along with. I like to try out new stuff (all kinds of art, sports, journeys...), to read and to discuss and a good party.

PHILOSOPHY

"I want to beg you, as much as I can, to be patient toward all that is unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a very foreign tongue. Do not seek the answers, which cannot be given to you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then, gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answers." Rainer Maria Rilke, "letters to a young poet"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By offering people advice on how to get along in berlin and a coffee/tea. By being a host on conviction.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been staying on so many couches! For example at a family's in Ecuador. After I came back I promised myself to give something back. I have hosted people from all over the world already and I enjoy it very much. I never did this via CS and I am curious.

Interests

Art (all kinds), sports (tango dancing, yoga, hiking,...), politics (climate change and renewables), moderation methods, reading (fiction and non-fiction), and many things more!

Music, Movies, and Books

I like so many movies, books, and artists that there is no use in strating to count. For me it is important to get into media in a language that I learned. That is why I mostly read books and see movies in english (Jonathan Safran Foer, Hemingway, Harper Lee,...), spanish (Laura Esquivel), and german (Lion Feuchtwanger, Bertold Brecht,...). I love trivia-scintific books about topics I do not really understand, physics, for example. I am very open if it comes to music but unfortunatly I do not play an instrument. Would love to change that!
