International idealism clashed with old-style national self-interest

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I love travelling, but I always want to become something more than just a tourist. I want to be able to feel the life of the place, to feel how authentic it is and to get to know it beyond the glass in the souvenir shop and the Lonely Planet sightseeing list. I think that the best way to do so is to get to know local people, their mentality, superstitions, the way of thinking and to hear their stories.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

Music: I have a very diverse playlist from all around the world because I study in the college with people from 72 different countries and love exploring their culture. But above all is always Jazz and Radiohead
Movies: directed by Kusturica, Woody Allen, Martin Scorsese
I also love Friends, Sherlock and Game of Thrones
the list of books would be simply too long
