I love travelling but I hate travelling without any feeling of being home - thats why I love it so much more when I am able to actually live at someones house during my travelling or to get into contact with people who live there. Otherwise I feel I dont really get to know the place. Luckily I met tons of nice people wherever I went and I am so grateful for their hospitality - even without couchsurfing! Now I want to try my luck with couchsurfing. I am also very excited to myself host guests from all over the world! I dont have a spare room though, I live in a 4 bedroom - flat with 4 people and we have an elevated bed in the corridor (we call it "the loft") that adventurous people can sleep in :)

I like all genres, it just has to be good :) Element of Crime, the National, Cairokee, Fauré, Ibrahim Maalouf, M.I. A., Selda Bagcan, Yasmine Hamdan.. books: Its maybe embarassing but I love Harry Potter. Otherwise "Love" by Toni Morrisson, German author Saša Stanišić.
