Hi, I'm Clair. Currently erazmus student in Germany- Lower saxony, enjoying beautiful nature and calmness around me.

To save time, here it is a shortened version of who I am:

- A girl who hope that one day will be that humble, smart and bighearted person, who she imagine to be.
- a student of environmental studies and politics in Brno, Czech Republic
- The one who believes that her main purpose is to help others, but also knows that the best way to help people is to help our planet.
- The girl which is full of paradoxes, loves philosophy, writes poetry and likes to act as an intelligent, well mannered woman, but at the same time spend hours in a forest drumming on Wood-decay fungus with bare foot and messy hair.

Hobbies: currently graphic design- I'm working on illustrations for one of my short stories, and also I love playing with photoshop :D you can find some of my pieces here in photos, running , slackline, dancing in front of the mirror in my bedroom

Beginning of long version:
I do all sorts of non-traditional things. I am the one who does not hesitate to do things that are beyond borders of "That's the way it should be done. "I don't mind walking barefoot in nature or in the city, I could drink milk from wine glass, just for that special moment of bizarreness, I don't mind wearing socks in sandals, because yeah, it's REALLY comfortable and that's my top goal.
As the phrase says: sobre gustos no hay nada escrito.
So it is very important to me that my way of doing things is tolerated. And of course I try to tolerate others. So if you eat cat food for breakfast, whatever you like, I wouldn't be disgusted, but I'd rather be amazed that there is another human being who doesn't care about the opinions of others.

At this point, I realized that it would take several days to decide what I really want to present as my characteristic. It will be more useful if we exchange some messages and get to know each other. :)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Probably for the same reason as you
- wanna know new people with same interests
- to learn about new countries/cities from locals
- to cross the border of my comfort zone and fear
-to have unforgettable experience and memories which I would telling to my grandchildren

音乐、电影和书籍

|Music |

In my playlists, you can find anything from indie, folk, classics, psychadelic rock, jazz, psytrance, hard rock...

My favourite songs are usually kinda hippie/beat generation songs which have deep lyrics that resonates with me. And also I like to discover music of different countries. My top discoveries are polish and ukrainian folk, hungarian indie and I hope my list of non-english/slovak songs will go on.

Song I would currently recommend you Simon a Garfunkel : The sound of silence

Curently listening: Oum shatt, Phosphorescent, Gregory Alan Isakov, Rend Collective...and a lot of folk music from slavic states: you can listen it here if you want:) https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1KFcPT8DNNtyru90Q1DX7i?si=37811133318e477a

| Books |

Books that probably influence me the most: The Bible, Fear and Trembling (Kierkegaard) The Man Who Planted Trees (Jean Giono), A Field Guide to Getting Lost,

Authors, which way of expressing their thought (and thoughts themselfs) resonates with me:
Søren Kierkegaard ( yeah, that danish phylosopher who initiated existencialism), Robert Fulghum, C.S. Lewis, Peter Kryštufek,

| Movies |

All time favourites: Amélie ( maybe because my mum have seen it day before I was born) , Leon
Currently enjoying: Czech–Slovak New wave experimental movies like Daisies or Garden

... but in general, movies that are unconventional, but they still have an original and meaningful point.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

...reach at least this level of humility: I do not feel so comfortable to share my successes as I used to :D

教，学，和分享

Oh yeah, the one who came up with idea to put here this secsion is genious!

I love learning new things ( better said, "starting learning new things and then stop doing them because...hmm why, Clair, why? ")

and it could be anything from practical skill, new language or skill that is absolutely useless, but you can show off on parties.

Useless things I can teach you
- make paper boad without using your hand
- use your body as a percussion in a numerous way
- weird looking yoga poses

Not so useless things I can teach you:
- clean up your online space and help to make system in it
- cook some Slovak national meals, or indian, asian...
- basics of graphic design

And I hope you are eager to teach someone your most underrated skill, because I would be definitely interested.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Sincere interest in your way of life, thinking and perception of the world. I would like to listen to your stories and share mine as well.

And from the material point of view, I could give you stickers which I designed :D
