Overview
About Me
Hey Lovely People! My Name is Alexandra and I am a 24 year old from Switzerland. I am constantly curious and eager to learn. I am always up for a good coffee and long talks.
I am focusing on Education, what in my point of view seems to be the solution to many of our current problems. Ever since i tried to do something meaningfull and my profession seems to be the perfect way for me to give back to society. I am a passionate teacher. As a Teacher my philosophy is to teach beyond school subjects to inspire kids and take them on a journey of adventures. Kids have taught me to see the little things in life and enjoy every moment to the fullest.
While Traveling i find myself always amazed by culture, people and food from different places. I really do believe, that traveling is good for you personal development and growth.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing seems to be a good way to get in touch with all kinds of people. I like to share ideas and listen to your philosophy about life. Travelling for me is the perfect chance to learn about life and i am happy if you can share anything with me.
Interests
I am a passionate singer and chances are high you'll hear me singing or at least humming all day long. I learned to play the guitar by myself and still working on this. I also like to read and learn about history and try to understand the puzzle of our current society and world situation through this.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
When i was 14 years old i went to Canada to stay with a family as an aupair. This was a intense experience for me because this was my first time abroad. I have learned a lot during my time in Canada.
Teaching Refugees in German language really showed me my passion for my Job. I am glad i took the chance to help others and at the same time finding out what i really love to do in life.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can show you some Chords on the guitar and we can sing along! :) Currently i am working as a writing instructor at my university so i'd be glad to help you with any type of writing. If you need any help in Learning Strategies i can help you with this as well! I can teach you in german or english or some basic french if you wish.
