ABOUT ME

Hi, my name is Jessica. I'm studying psychology at the RWTH University of Aachen.

I enjoy drawing, reading and singing; I am quite talkative and therefore very much interested in foreign languages and cultures. It's very easy to fascinate me with whatever you are yourself fascinated by; I love to learn new things from nice people :) Usually, I'm an easy-going person :D

I really love music, such as metal music ( in flames, epica ), rock music ( placebo, pink floyd ) and pop music by artists such as tori amos and björk.
My friends are very important to me, which is why I spend a lot of time with them, going to parties, having long movie nights, cooking ( veggie ) and going to the movie theater.

PHILOSOPHY

the heart is a lonely hunter.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
