Hi, I’m Bettina. I’m an open-minded traveler who loves connecting with people and discovering the world through their eyes. Whether it’s sharing stories, exploring hidden gems, or just enjoying good conversations, I believe every person I meet has something unique to teach me. I’m curious, easygoing, and always up for new adventures—or a quiet cup of tea. Usually not the person you find at parties but rather in calmer settings

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I use Couchsurfing because I believe travel is about more than just places—it’s about people. Staying with locals allows me to experience the heart of a city, not just its landmarks. I love the exchange of stories, cultures, and perspectives that happen when strangers open their doors to each other. It’s a way to step out of my comfort zone and into a world where trust, kindness, and connection remind me how small and beautiful the world really is.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teaching, being taught, and sharing experiences are how we grow. Every interaction is a chance to learn something new, offer what we know, and create connections that inspire and transform us.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share meaningful conversations, stories from my travels, and a genuine curiosity about their world. I’m happy to cook a meal, exchange language tips, or just offer a listening ear. For me, it’s all about creating moments we’ll both remember.

Unfortunately, I would clearly like to state that this is not tinder! And there will not be any romantic contact or anything of its kind! Please be respectful and mindful of other people.
