Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I am new here, never travelled like this - but I like the idea of cs very much ( the more I read about the values and people here, the more I like it ...). and so I thought: why not joining in and trying ou.t.
curious to make friends with openminded, interesting, peaceful and caring people when I travel to new cities,...

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I teach the Feldenkrais-method for more than 30 years now and love to accompany people in their personal growth...

I'd love to meet people with whom I could do chamber-music, f.e. string - quartet...

I like to listen to and learn from wise and simple people

Languages:....as there are only 2 possibilities on the top of this page ( fluent or learning ): I am only really fluent in English and German, my French is a little rusty, I also learned Italian a hundred years ago and forgot most of it again, the same with modern Hebrew, which I studied for some months in an Ulpan in Tel Aviv...
At the moment I am more keen to improve my Spanish....

I always meant to learn Chinese, as I learned a lot about chinese traditional medicine, but never travelled to China, - so far no chance and at the moment no real wish to, as I do not appreciate what I heard or read about the current politics there...

different cultures...

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

talks, music, I love cooking - also together..., mainly vegetarian meals, but also fish, to have a nice cup of green tea or a good white or red wine together, enjoy a concert...
to talk about life, love, relations, philosophy, religion, wisdom, the sense of life ...

to laugh together...

I can offer hands-on-functional integration lessons ( Feldenkrais-method),
wellness massage, making music together,
doing meditation together,....
