After 10 months of traveling through Australia, New Zealand, America and Iceland I’ve know been studying history and political science and the university of Freiburg for one year but I’m still off to smaller trips every now and then :-)
I love having good conversations and laughs as well as I’m having a passion for traveling, baking, books and the outdoors (and good coffee ...:-))

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I love meeting new people, having good conversations and learning a lot about the country I am traveling. Also, you meet people on a more personal level and talk about more than the common hostel kitchen conversation “where are you from and what are you cooking” :-) (which definitely doesn’t mean that you can’t have good conversations in hostels but you know what I mean)

Interests

There’s nothing that really doesn’t interest me. But I love the outdoors, especially hiking and camping as well as scuba diving and skiing whenever it’s possible. I also really enjoy finding nice cafes and going for coffees whether it’s by myself with a book or with friends. In my “everyday life” I go pretty much everywhere by bike which over the years has caused biking to be one of my hobbies and I’m a passionate horse rider (but Icelandic horses only ). Other than that I love listening to all kinds of music, socializing, poetry, politics, a good night out every now and then, long walks, photography, baking and of course traveling!
