I woofed on a couple of farms in rural Ireland, working together and staying with my host, learning their way of life, the local area, as well as agriculture such as milking cows, growing organically, permaculture, beekeeping etc. It was such a valuable experience, not only because of the adventurous aspect of learning something new, but also because that the practice of trust and sharing is such a powerful link between humanity as a whole, which unfortunately is losing in the fast-paced modern society. Curiousity was usually what motivated me to embark on an adventure such as woofing, couchsurfing, hitchhiking etc. As a result, I learned that the interaction and often the long-lasting friendship built with my hosts is what matters at the end of the day.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

To get out of my comfort zone and my shell despite my shyness, and to have more memorable moments in my life and some meaningful exchange whether it's cultural, culinary, language or something else

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Hiked through a desert in China overnight, watched a magnificent sunrise on the way;
looked after an organic farm on my own for a month during a stormy winter in Sligo;
milked 70 cows on Valentia island during the first lockdown;
my first-time experience of surfing in the sea was in the rain on my period and I surprisingly enjoyed it!
solo hitched in Ireland, Morocco, Czech, Slovakia, Hungary and Austria, meeting wonderful people on the way, such as a Slovakian folk healer, a Berber nomad who learned so many languages by talking to people
