About Me

I'm both calm and talkative, it depends on my mood and the people I'm with... and being calm with you, doesn't mean, I'm bored or uncomfortable, I enjoy silence as much as I like good conversations.
I'm interested in many different topics and can listen... but most of all I'm quite much of a daydreamer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I love traveling and meeting new people, get to know them and maybe even become friends. I'd like to see the cities in a different way than from the point of view of a typical tourist, get some insider tipps, and have a good time. But most important, to make experiences on one hand by showing people how beautiful my hometown is and on the other hand by visiting others in places I've never been before.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living in a boarding school for a year, which is not quite normal in Switzerland, with people from all over the world, dancing with them at the theater Basel and learning with and from them, was a very important experience for me, even though, I couldn't let go yet.
And then there is that journey, I made last summer with a friend. We travelled through Scandinavia by train, were extremely unorganized and so didn't always have a place to sleep. We met amazing people, saw beautiful places and ate delicious food.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would really like to learn playing the guitar and speaking Spanish... I could teach you some German or even Swissgerman and how to cook a typical Swiss dish (vegan)

What I Can Share with Hosts

My hometown Burgdorf and Bern are lovely and I would like to show you around, like a friend, not like a tourist. We could go to cafés and bars, to cute small shops, only few people know, swim in the river Aare or just walk around and getting lost together, cause my orientation is terribly bad, even though I live there already my whole life long. Later we could go out to dance or sit on the roof, drink some hot tea and talk or say nothing and listen to some good music.
