Hey there👋 My name is Anna, I'm a 26 year old German born and raised and currently on a working holiday visa to explore beautiful Canada and British Columbia in particular. I graduated from med school in Germany last year and felt the need to broaden my horizon afterwards, that's why I started traveling. I'm eager to make a lot of new experiences, to discover new work environments and career paths as to meet amazing new people from all over the world as well. I'm passionate about cooking healthy food, living plant-based for the past two years now, love all the outdoors, consider myself to be politically interested, call myself a feminist and like to visit art gallerys, any kind of museum, to read and to listen to different kinds of music, especially electronic and folk. Absolutely LGBTQ+-positive and always curious about new stories to hear and connections to make 🌈

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travel globally, connect locally - what a beautiful motto! It's the people making trips we go on special, it's the adventure thrilling us and it's the curiousity moving us forward. To have the possibility to learn about new people and cultures is a huge privilige, I'm more than happy I may participate 🌻

Music, Movies, and Books

Ever heard of Kings of Convenience? Surely one of my favorites, you might check them out :) The latest movie I watched and particularly liked has been "Colette" featuring amazing Keira Knightley.
