CURRENT MISSION

learning and exploring while traveling the world

ABOUT ME

When not traveling I work in an organic supermarket whenever they call me (which is quite a lot...). I'm mostly able to listen to my heart and do what I feel is good at that moment. I love traveling and do that a lot. Like to meet interesting people and see a lot of places all over the world. I´m interested in a natural way of life with nice people around me and organic food. I don't like eating meat, eggs and dairy but don't mind when people around me do so. Our kitchen is used to having different people preparing lots of different things in it. One day I'd like to settle down somewhere and live there in an (almost) sustainable way.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to live my life honestly, both to myself and to others, by following my heart and doing what feels good at the moment. I'm an open person and very interested in others.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I already surfed a few couches which turned out to be real beds in the most cases! Very much enjoyed hosting travelers when I'm in my home town! Also used the network twice to connect with people and travel together for a while.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed in Amsterdam, NYC, LA, Honolulu and quite a few other places and hope to host a lot of travelers in the future. Looking forward to get to meet more fellow travelers and show them my town and country!

音乐、电影和书籍

Books: I love reading. Most of the books I read are about natural medicines, plants, spirituality...
Movies: I like watching movies although there is one little problem. I sometimes don't get to understand the whole story... Some movies I like a lot are "Amelie", "Into the wild", "The Hurricane" and "Grizzly man".
Music: Always difficult to remember names of musicians I like... Jack Johnson, Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, Lucky Fonz III. Better is asking Timo (in my friendslist).

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Lots of amazing things I've done. Spending eight months volunteering in Spain on organic farms with my friend Timo was a great experience! Skiing in Whistler (Canada) was a different thing but also wonderful! Traveling!
Surfed a perfect couch in Manhattan 1,5 week!
Cycling the Cape Argus Tour around Cape Peninsula in Cape Town!
Too many things to list here I think actually...

教，学，和分享

Well, I can ski, can teach you how to do pottery on a turning wheel (although I don't have a wheel at home...), know quite a bit about natural foods...
I'm always learning and I love doing that. I'm meeting so many interesting people all over the world and I hope I'll be able to keep doing that.
