About Me

Your Personality is Somewhat Rare (ESFP)

Your personality type is playful, charming, open minded, and energetic.

Only about 7% of all people have your personality, including 9% of all women and 5% of all men
You are Extroverted, Sensing, Feeling, and Perceiving.

How Rare Is Your Personality?

PHILOSOPHY

I´ve read in another profile...that if you have one friend in every country...how you can start a war then..!
I really like this idea...and I think through Couchsurfing the world can grow together...and we can make an effort on understanding and accepting other cultures and mentalities...!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Music, Movies, and Books

I love Rock and especially Indie-Rock music...there are a lot of favorite bands (such as The Killers, Shout Out Louds or Kaiser Chiefs, Beirut).

Concerning books I prefer reading nonfiction books (besides travel reports), mostly about history, archaeology and general knowledge as well as something about useless (and funny) facts.

I´m also a big movie fan...I love going to cinema. But here I´m more a girly (apart from action movies) as I cannot stand horror films and prefer comedy or romances.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Crossing the UK along Hadrian's Wall Path: hiking!

Mountain biking on Eeaster Island!

Horseback riding over the Andeans for 5 days.....staying overnight in tents, once even inside a (extinct) volcano crater!

Downhill Mountainbiking for 3500m of altitude and 65km of distance on the DEATH ROAD in Bolivia...and still alive!

Hiking at the 4th tallest and tallest active volcano "Cotopaxi" in Ecuador!

Snorkeling with sharks at the Galápagos Islands!

Went with some friends back-country skiing in the evening in Tyrol...equipped with a headlamp!

Hiking in the rainforests of Laos....staying overnight there by "homestay" and after hiking back the next day kayaking down the Mekong River!

Hiking to the "ciudad perdida" about 50km through the rainforest of Colombia.

Hiking in Kirgisistan and Tadschikistan. Including a 30 hours rescue of a group member who broke her leg until we got her to the hospital in the capital of Tadschikistan.

Couchsurfing in many countries and getting to know great personalities!!!

Thanks to "kismet".....finding the love of my life!
