Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I hosted a polish playwright when I lived in Munich. He was very friendly and had a lot of interesting thing to tell me about his profession.
Unfortunately he didn't really have the time for me to take him sightseeing and ti show him 'my Munich'. When I move back there I'd really like to do that more.
I have surfed on a couch in Vienna, which was a lovely experience because I lived with two girls, that I had me travlling. They were awfully cute and eager to show me around.
Another couch I stayed on was in Copenhagen where a friend of a girl I met on Interrail offered me a bed in her parents house while they were on vacation (very friendly!).
The last time I couchsurfed was in Edinburgh. I ran out of money while travelling, so I was pretty desperate, sleeping in really cheap hostels, when I met a French girl who offered me to stay in her flat while she was on vacation - saved my life!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I can not narrow the 'amazingness' of my travelling experiences down to one moment.
All the encouters I've made, all the people I met and the places I've seen, contribute to who I am now. The good experiences by far outweighed the bad ones.
Therefor, my belief in the kindness of human kind is unbroken.
Teach, Learn, Share
I think most of all I can share my open-mindedness with people, my way to perceive the world.
And I enjoy getting to know other people's views and opinions.
I'd like to see life itself as a creative act and I' like people to be more aware of the beauty of life (the beauty of a nicely prepared meal or a child playing on the street).
I love languages and I suppose that teaching them and sharing my skills and this field will be an important part of my life.
