About Me

ABOUT ME

Outdoorsy, enthusiastic and so on. I spend a significant portion of my time traveling, reading, writing, cooking, dancing and listening to music and playing sports.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Friends, whom I've met during my exchange in Bologna were really optimistic about couchsurfing! So I wanted to try this great opportunity to get to know new people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Since my travels in Canada Im convinced that CS is one of the best ways to visit a city/country. Hopefully I can collect more of those wild, blissful experiences.

Interests

Playing sports, especially basketball, hiking, running, biking, surfing, swimming: I really love it a lot. I enjoy cooking, eating, dinners with friends, learn new cultures by exploring their cuisine and almost everything related to food. Reading and listening to music are also important in my life. And speak, understand and listen to different languages makes me happy.

Music, Movies, and Books

Together with my flatmate and friends I watch quite a lot of movies. I really enjoy watching films! Which explaines my appreciation for symphonical film music. Other examples of music I listen to are: Radiohead, Thom Yorke, Nobraino, James Blake, Blaudzun, The Animals, Luis Prima, Bon Iver, Miles Davis, Charles Mingus, Feist and more.

One of my favorite writers is Kurt Vonnegut. Some other books: Papillon (Henri Charrière), On the Road (Jack Kerouac), One hunderd years of solitude (Gabriel Garcia Márquez) and Hella S. Haasse.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd like to do more yoga.. anyone who can teach me this in return for some recipes?
