ABOUT ME
I am a German born in Chile, but raised in the USA and studying in Italy.

CURRENT MISSION

1) Ireland
2) Slovenia and Croatia

4) Cyprus, Greece, Bulgaria, and Romania.

Some countries I really want to see:
Mexico, Cuba, Colombia, Brazil, Turkey, India, Thailand
Let me know if you can help make it happen!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My travels have taught me that if you use airplanes and hotels, you will see mostly the inside of airports and hotel rooms.

Alternatively if you walk, bike, hitchhike, trainhop, camp outside, and couchsurf, you will see and hear and taste and live everything that your destination has to offer. And you'll connect with the people there and have amazing memories and stories to tell.
