Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To have set foot on all 7 continents! I managed to get Antarctica this year (2015) and continue my travels through Australia and Asia to get the set!
ABOUT ME
I'm an avid traveller who is finally embarking on my dream to do a Round-the World trip. I got the bug early from living in Germany as a child and having access to all of Europe so easily! I also love photography but found I was letting it go due to working so much. So I quit work! :) I love animals and music. Going to gigs is one of my favourite pastimes. I'm easy-going and like to see where my mood takes me. I'm spontaneous but also love to organise and research things. Love meeting people of all cultures and learning every day!
PHILOSOPHY
No Regrets!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm currently only looking to surf other couches as I'm traveling the world but when I get home I will be happy to repay the experience.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My first experience was excellent in Brazil and has me well and truly on the couch surfing wave! Since then I have also stayed in Ushuaia, the southernmost City in the world. Another very positive experience!
