Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to get to know people all over the world and learn about their cultures.

Interests

I love cooking, my favorite meal is german "Schnitzel". My dad is a chef, so I learned from the best and you don't want to miss out on that. :P
I started doing yoga last year, it helped me calm down and get to know myself better. Since then I've been doing yoga frequently and I never want to stop again.
I tried kickboxing this year at university for the first time and it's so much fun. I think yoga and kickboxing ist the perfect combination. :)
Also I am a very musical person, I've been singing since I can think and I love dancing aswell. It just makes me happy immediately. In addition to that I am a very artsy person, I've been taking art classes since kindergarten and I majored in arts at High School. I enjoy doing all kinds of art, especially together with people and I really enjoy visiting art museums.
Besides that I love escaping reality by reading books and it really makes me happy to share my thoughts on books with other people.
While traveling I like to spend most time in nature to slow life down. I love gardening, my balcony is full of all kinds of plants that I grew myself. It just makes me happy to see things grow that I created. Even better if it's edible. :P
I'm a huge dog lover, the day that I get to own my own dog will be the happiest day in my life. I just know that. ;)
My favorite animals are whales, I think they are extremly fascinating and my favorite color is teal (which you can recognize from far away haha).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Roadtrip through Europe. - I went through Europe by car with a friend in summer 2015. I loved it because we were very flexible by car and we even slept in the car. We drove through Austria to Italy. In Italy we visited Venice, Milano and Sabbiadoro. Then we drove back home through Switzerland. Such a great experience, that I would love to do again one day!

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to learn what other people think of life and see their perspectives of life to get inspired. I love laughing together so let's just hang out and share a good laugh!:))
Also I would be happy to cook together and learn about your country's special meals.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would love to cook a (german) meal for you (Schnitzel?;)) and I can teach you how to speak some german. :)
I am defenitely also open to cook vegan if you prefer that!:)
