CURRENT MISSION
Getting lost in the right direction
ABOUT ME
Chaotic twenty-something who likes discovering new things and meeting new people. Plans and routine are giving me the creeps. Professional hitchhiker and not so professional waitress in real life.
PHILOSOPHY
Take it easy. The things you want will come to you when you least expect them.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
The people I met were always kind and lovely. With most I had interesting conversations and a great time together.
Interests
Besides travelling another passion is photography (I actually never leave my camera at home). Otherwise I like going to the theatre, walking through crowded cities or lonely mountains, watching films, playing the guitar (I might not really have a talent for that though :D), learning languages, reading. Oh and I love animals and fireworks and good food.
