ABOUT ME

I like a good book in a sunny park, strong coffee, animals, logic puzzles, jigsaw puzzles, dimly-lit bars, friends old and new, laughing, sweaters, vegetarian food, swimming, hiking...

PHILOSOPHY

Create hygge, be gentle.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Couchsurfing utilizes generosity, community involvement, and available space as a means of connecting folks across the world. And skirting capitalism to boot. It's a lovely way to shrink the globe and build mutual understanding.

Interessen

Exploring, enriching, existing. Learning about the culture around me and the history of that place.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

yes! I enjoy many genres of each of these, however seriously dislike horror films and books. I like being blown away by an author, director, or musician I'd never heard of or catching up on the classics. Currently reading The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay by Michael Chabon.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Tiger Leaping Gorge! This multi-day hike along the Jinsha River in Yunnan province, SW China, is stunning, challenging, and so worth the effort.
