Although I am only 20, I lived in a few host families and traveled by myself to countries like Panama, Iceland, USA, Nepal!! (- absolutely life changing experiences -) and some European countries. I love traveling by myself, finding new adventures and being independent and free.

Currently I`m a college student living in a dorm in Fulda in Germany. My major is nutrition, so I am really interested in (healthy) food. Since I was 7 years old, I am a vegetarian. I prefer spending a night drinking tea, playing/listening to a guitar, lightning a fire/candles and have nice conversations than getting drunk in a club. That doesn't mean I'm shy or quiet, I'd refer to myself more as an energetic person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The greatest thing about traveling is never the sights or landscape you see, it is always the people that make a place great! I love to meet new people to get to know other perspectives of life!
Also, you can dig so much deeper into a country and its culture if you get to hang out with locals. :)

Interests

In my free time I love to play guitar and piano. My favorite activity is doing activities with my Scout group. I am a Scout leader and love to be in the nature. Through my Scout group I also already experienced cultural exchange. This year we are hosting a group from Zimbabwe on our camp and can hopefully visit them next year.

Favorite movies: I don´t own a TV, so I barely watch anything. But I loved the TV show One tree hill when I was a teenager. I like movies which make me think about life and the world. or if the plot has an unexpected twist.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One? Thousands!
Everyday offers something amazing. I'm trying to appreciate the little things. :)

But well, I guess volunteering in Nepal was the best thing I have ever experienced.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think the purpose in life is to leave the world behind a little better, so basically trying to help people in anyway, for example by just being generous and open-hearted.
I'm also a strong believer in the little things in life. One thing you say or do can change so much, you might not even know it.
