Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To learn more about the world through hosting/visiting people from all over the world
ABOUT ME
I enjoy cultural events and all the actions necessary to make them happen and have experience in arranging cultural events. I'm outgoing and like meeting and sharing ideas and thoughts with new people and getting to know the world through them. I was once a lawyers secretary and liked my job, but quite often I sat by my desk thinking that it could be nice to be more outgoing, e.g. in cultural life. This has now been fulfilled. I like music a lot and I'm also doing amateur photo projects.
PHILOSOPHY
Say yes whenever there is no good reason not to do so
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I travel and I enjoy hosting nice people from all over the world.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
August 2009 I had my first couch surfing experiences with great hosts in Benesov and Vienna :-) In April 2010 I had my first experience as a host. I hosted Sandy from the US. She brought many parts of the world to me as she has travelled in India, Scandinavia and a lot of other places. My next two guests brought Italy closer, I loved the beautiful and funny Italian songs Sara sang to her 8 months old daughter. I have by now a lot of great experinces with people who came to my place by bike, car or train. People who were on holiday or took part in a conference at the University or were on a study trip. From them I learnt a lot about the world. I'm thankful for that and looking forward to more great experiences.
