CURRENT MISSION

empowerment .... understanding love and compassion & putting it into practice

ABOUT ME

40 years & counting, non-smoker, extrovert but actually rather shy, Queer, pro-sexual, learning lessons ...

even though I have a strong tendency to keep to myself, I welcome a chance for exchange and find new insights and learn something else, whatever it is that we have to tell each other.

PHILOSOPHY

use your senses to make sense!
freedom := fulfillment X movement X choice
exploration rather than exploitation ...

"that nameless softness, that makes the human human"
Christa Wolf, from 'Kassandra' (also available in English)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been helped tremendously by people in the past, so in that sense it is very easy to give in return and pass on the goodies :-)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

it happened to me several times that I got to stay over with people, even in places like New York, even for a longer time, and I also had people come and stay at the place that I live at now.

general conclusion for now:
what works for one person does not work at all for the other, but unless you don't try (safely) you won't know.
