About Me

I have just come back from my 5-month-long trip through the Middle East to Sudan and Ethiopia. I experienced great hospitality from the seemingly poorest. That made me realize: It is giving that makes you the richest person!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Solo female travel Sudan

Teach, Learn, Share

Let's learn languages together and share our views on the world.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I only host FEMALE solo travelers and for max. 3 nights! My place is small 😉

I am happy to meet for coffee with everyone and share some recommendations of what to do, to see and to experience in Berlin. If I am free I am glad to join you exploring!

I also love to cook for my guests (though not too traditional dishes as I find German food neither great nor very vegetarian).
