I'm a curious and open-minded young woman who is exploring the world with a big smile on my face. I love to get to know other perspectives and to expand my horizons. I love to hear other people's story. I try to learn something from everyone and everything in my life. That way even bad things aren't that bad anymore.

In case you got confused by my references: My parents named me Yasmin and later I was given the name Manavi by a spiritual teacher, which I kept until this day :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I can offer my couch! I would also love to meet new people to show them my city.

Also I'd love to get to know locals on my trips in order to see their country through their eyes and to learn about their culture and maybe surf some couches too!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Diving with sharks was a pretty impressive experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

A man once asked me, if I could put three things in a glass, that make the world a better place, what would they be? I thought about it for a second and answered: Love, compassion and honesty. After that I decided to give as much of it as possible. Like Gandhi said: Be the change you want to see in the world.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Reportedly, you can have great conversations with me. And if you don't think so, I'm still a great chef! These two go great together as well! And massages, people say I have healing hands. :)
