I am an open-minded, easy-going person who loves adventures and learning new things! I take life day by day and try to see the bright side in everything. I don't take anything for granted and try to be grateful and respectful to everyone :)

I am a quarter-English, quarter-German and half-Italian and I grew up near Portsmouth (in the south of England). I studied in Italy and now I'm studying and working Germany.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I've Couchsurfed a lot in the past (at least 10 times, surfing only)!

I love meeting new people and traveling, and I've always thought that Couchsurfing is a brilliant idea!

Interessen

I love nature and travelling and in general cycling, hiking, cooking, fresh air, swimming and fitness. I grew up next to the sea so I love the sea. I can definitely cook for you if you want :)

Other than that I kind of like everything and am always eager to try out new things!

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I feel like I've heard/seen/read too little to be able to express an informed opinion, but of the books I've read so far I like: Mann, Nabokov, Orwell, Nietzsche, Kafka, Joyce, Dostoyevsky, Arendt, Tolstoy. I read Michela Murgia and Niccolò Ammaniti recently and I could recommend them a lot. And Zadie Smith too. And I like non-fiction too. These questions are far too specific, just find me on Goodreads :D https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/48786178-simon-hoddinott
