Overview
About Me
I love nature and every kind of animals! I have a strong connection to all kinds of alternative living and thinking people, who care for the planet.
I love deep talks, dancing wild and free, campfires, vagabonding. I love traveling very slow, do get in contact with people and countries.
I prefer train rides instead of car or flight. I teach and do Yoga, meditation and rituals. I love good books and a cup of tea or red wine. I also love gardening and taking care of places like farms, houses. I grw up on the countryside in Germany, so I know about caring for animals and plants :)
I own a little buisness, doing healing work in nature:

I lived in a community with many people and animals in Germany from 2014 til 2020. Now (2023) I will soon start my second long term travel. Becoming a vagabond again for certain time will be exciting!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I started couchsurfing in 2010 and I am very happy, how this influenced my life!
hosting, travelling together, dancing, talking, doing Yoga, meditation, hiking, party, picnic, sight seeing, helping each other(!), theater, livingroom-concerts, other concerts, cs-meetings, cs-camps, cooking, barbecues, beach, roadtrips, hitchhiking, lovestories ;) friends(!!!) christmas eves, swimming, sauna, biketours, paragliding, laughing, smiling, music..............
In February 2013 I started my first long-term travel. I have been abroad for two years. It changed my perspective to the world and especially to other cultures a lot! It was amazing and I know I will do it again.
If you start to do couchsurfing or vagabonding or however you call it, you probably will never be able to go back, to what is called "normal routine life". You may try it at certain times, but there is this little voice inside then, telling you what you already know: "There is so much MORE! And you can have it. So many places and people and amazing experiences are waiting for you to let your spirit grow!"
I didn t do much couchsurfing (official) on my trip (but what I did was so intensive and beautiful!), but I experienced volunteering, rainbow gatherings (love it!!) massage courses, farm working, hitchhiking and lots more! Fantastic!
I learned how to live with less money, did pilgrimages and worked in a children home in Sri Lanka for two month.
So I have a lot to share, if you are interested in this lifestyle.
I will start my second long term travel in november 2023 with a lovely company this time.
We search for places to stay from one night till several month, if we do work and travel or housesitting.
