I'm Alice, 29 years old and from Hamburg, Germany.
Ever since finishing my teacher training im summer 2024 (I’m a high school teacher for English and History), I have been travelling LATAM and have madly fallen in love with the people, the cultures and all the histories and beautiful landscapes I got to know.
I‘ve travelled a lot in Europe, have spent several months in South East Asia and have been to the Middle East for a bit before exploring Latam.
I’m passionate about history, learning about cultures, discussing politics, history and feminism. I’m a good listener but also love talking when I’m comfortable. I’m a very organized person with lots of plans for every single day. You will likely find me exploring a museum, hiking to waterfalls or wandering through ruins :)
As a guest I’m tidy, quiet, independent and very capable of adapting so you won’t have to worry about me at all :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a great way to meet new people and make friends all over the world and this is what travelling is about for me. I love meeting people that will give me an insight into their culture, share their thoughts and feelings with me and I appreciate these connections I get to make so much!

Music, Movies, and Books

If I had to describe my music taste I’d say a mix of Indie Pop, Pop, Rock and EDM. Good lyrics are essential!
When I find some good songs I tend to repeat the same playlist for weeks and weeks..

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

swimming with sea lions in Lima, hiking hidden waterfalls all over Latam, discovering Antarctica

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a lot about history - especially English and Viking history - and love to share my knowledge and learn about other country's history! I can easily spend an entire night discussing societal topics and am always open to cooking sessions (I make a good Thai curry).

What I Can Share with Hosts

My knowledge about history and German culture, my cooking and organisation skills and long discussions about feminism, politics in general and history
