On the journey of learning to listen.

Everyday I am reminded of how little I know and how much there is to learn. So I try to hear what other people tell me, what mother earth tries to show me. And I'm only at the very beginning.
Luckily - or else life would be boring :D

It doesn't matter what I do, I do it with my heart. Everything gets a new and different meaning and I'm addicted to the intensity of experiences and the emotions connected to them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I will never get bored meeting new people who inspire me in various ways. Also, it is so much more interesting experiencing a city when people show you how it is to live there. I'm not a tourist, just taking pictures is not enough for me ;)

Interests

Everything I like to do is about connecting.
To other people, to sound, taste, nature, myself. The past years I have learned how important connection is, how much it nurtures us.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music, well, I listen to pretty much every genre. Jazz, classic, reggae, dubstep, trap, country, ...

I worked in a bookstore for one year and read a lot - during my free time :D
Some of the last books I read:
Before the Coffee Gets Cold
How to Speak Whale
And
The Priory of the Orange Tree
If you have a recommendation, please let me know! :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living in a very very simple hut without water or electricity for five months now. It's completely changed the way I look at nature and opened my eyes for how much pain we are causing mother earth.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you a bit of Chinese if you're interested. I love the language and enjoy showing people how it's not only about some mysterious symbols but that there a lot more to it!

I haven't found many things I'm not interested in. (Money being one of the few.)
Whatever you have to share, I'd be thrilled if you could show me!

And what I'm here to share?
Love.
Hahaha that sounds cheesy. But I mean it. Who ever you are, whatever you do, I'm grateful to have learned to accept every person as they are and see the beauty in them.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Some basic things such as cooking - I do love to cook for and with other people :)

If you have guitar, I often just sit around in the evening and sing.
