CURRENT MISSION

I got the abattoir blues...Right down to my shoes... :)

ABOUT ME

I wish I had one of these cool, witty and oh-so-charming comments that people put in their 'All About You'section cleverly exposing inner mysteries but frankly I don't...All I have is boring stuff about,well, ME...Ha, go figure :P
Hi, I'm Janika, a History and English student. My addictions are coffee - seriously, who are these people that don't like coffee?! - reading, chocolate and music, of course... I have a tendency to get very excited about things, forcing me to actually jump for joy sometimes and even though I say I'm never late, well, mysteriously I am -sometimes,often...oh, who am I kidding here...
I'm often told that I'm very sociable - so there probably won't be any uncomfortable silence... I enjoy a good and serious converstaion as much as I enjoy just being goofy...
Well, that's all I can think of at the moment, if the above applied to you feel free to ask me anything I could have forgotten to expose I'm willing to answer questions following a yes/no pattern ;-)

PHILOSOPHY

The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. Resist it, and your soul grows sick with longing for the things it has forbidden to itself.
~Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Nope...but I have slept on a couch before though...

Interests

This might be quite cliché but I really like to meet new people, broaden my horizon, exchange opinions and ideas or just have a good time.
Music is everywhere I go - I can't be without it. When I grow up I wanna go to concerts for a living :-) -aww, a girl can dream,right?! I like taking pictures and my best friend means the world to me...

Music, Movies, and Books

Ok, I think it's my duty to warn you - I'm a slave for Nick Cave! Seriously :) if you don't believe me http://www.last.fm/user/MeschMesch ;-)
I especially enjoy Tim Burton, David Lynch and the work of Michel Gondry.
When it comes to books I'm really into Haruki Murakami, Max Frisch and E.T.A Hoffmann.
