Be the change you want to see

ABOUT ME

Outgoing, talkative, intellectual, spiritual, committed

PHILOSOPHY

"People were created to be loved and things were created to be used. The reason why the world is in chaos is because things are being loved and people are being used."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have done both surfing and hosting and have enjoyed it alot!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Very positive and inspiring. I do believe that showing hospitality to and being showed hospitality from unknown people are small steps to make the world a better place and break the vicious circles of distrust and fear

Interests

To connect to other people and with nature. Things like having dinner with good friends, reading inspiring books, having fun dancing, swimming in the sea, walking in the woods, practice qi gong. I love to volunteer when travelling and have done so a lot through the amazing international peace organization Service Civil International. I wish to contribute to a better world with more economic justice, peace and respect for the environment...

Music, Movies, and Books

I'd love to hear your favourit music, I'm easily influenced, but I have a special ear for Fairground attraction.
One awesome movie is "Das Leben den Anderen" (Life of the Others)
So many books...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visits to places where I've felt I'm on the edge of the world and connected with everything, so small and insignificant and still so powerful and part of the sea and the sky and the universe - Lands End in Cornwall, England, Finisterre in Galicia, Spain, Cape Point in the Cape Province in South Africa...
Then the universality of sitting around a camp fire in good company any where in the world, the feeling of community and sharing...

Teach, Learn, Share

So much to learn, so much to share...
