CURRENT MISSION

Teaching, personal growth, traveling, finding ways of contributing to other people's life's

ABOUT ME

Hey beautiful people of this world. My name is Antje and I am currently living in Berlin. I am working as a teacher in an elementary school. I love working with kids and having (hopefully) a positive impact on their lifes. I am working a lot, except during school holidays, which is when I try to travel as much as I can.
Before teaching, I lived in Atlanta, GA (USA) and worked there as an au pair. I really loved the culture and traveling around the country. I am still amazed by all the places that I've seen in the US and the people I met. I enjoy meeting new people as well as exploring new cities and places.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a great way to meet people from all around the world and to share different life experiences.

HOW I PARTICIPATE

So far, I have stayed on other people's couches but haven't hosted anyone yet, mainly because I am either working a lot (partly from home) or traveling. I would consider hosting other people to show them around my amazing city, if it's during a school holiday. Otherwise I wouldn't be around much and I wouldn't want my guests waking up super early each morning when I have to go to work.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

All my couchsurfing experiences have been pretty great so far, no matter whether I was couchsurfing with friends or on my own. It's awesome spending time with locals and getting to know them better and the surroundings.

Interests

I love traveling and getting to know new cultures and everything that they bring with them (food, people and their mentalities, sights, traditions, etc.). I also love music....the world would be such a quiet place without it! Whenever I can, I listen to music, I like to sing while driving and I love to dance. I enjoy any type of arts and being creative. Further, I like baking, reading, taking pictures, going to the movies and, of course, spending time with my friends and family.

Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I have ever done was going to the States to live there for about 4 years. I made so many wonderful experiences and met amazing people while experiencing the American culture.

Walking over burning hot coals at a UPW by Tony Robbins.

Doing cliff-diving in Hawaii.

Teach, Learn, Share

There is always something to learn from other people, be it a language, a new dish, a tradition in a city, a lesson in life, etc.
I am always willing to teach German, if someone is interested in learning the language...
I can teach you some dance moves, too and give you some advice on good books to read about personal development and growth.
