Recently having moved to Hildesheim, I am enjoying life in my new flatshare and happily exploring this cutesy town. This fall, I will be taking up my master's studies in diversity education. Learning, sharing and discussing knowledge is one of my passions (although I wouldn't consider myself an expert in any particular field). I care deeply about the movement(s) for social justice, animal liberation, and ecology, and try to find sensible and wholesome ways of contributing to those struggles.
Generally, I'd consider myself a respectful, unobtrusive and open-minded person to be around.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I've gone couch surfing before (using a different account with a different name, #trans*) and greatly enjoyed the experience. The spirit of giving and taking without involving money makes me feel connected to life as it should & could be.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Together with my partner, I saved a baby hedgehog from freezing in late autumn, feeding them freshly dumpster-dived eggs and vegan cat food for three months until they were strong enough to be set outside. I've never before or after interacted this closely with a wild animal.

教，学，和分享

Having taken some voice lessons, I can share some basic skills with anyone who'd like to explore their singing voice (but there's still a lot for me to learn as well).

Currently, I'm taking part in a prolonged course on systemic counseling. One of our tasks is to partner up with people who would like a counseling session and practice what we've learned so far.
I'm sure we'd both learn a great deal :-)

I enjoy sharing & discussing thoughts and ideas about political theories, movement strategies, and philosophies.
