Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
travelling the US - big time
ABOUT ME
I'm open-minded, interested in the way our world functions be it politics, sociology-y stuff or my favorite part urban studies-y stuff.
I want to see the world, but I want to discover it in a non-tourist kind of way - I love to experience places through the eyes of their inhabitants. So couch surfing is exactly my thing.
PHILOSOPHY
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I hope to find many, many couches in the US, as I plan to travel through the country between June 1st and August 10th.
Anyone, visiting the south of Baden, the Freiburg area, feel free to contact me to go for a cup of coffee or sth. As I'm currently living with my parents couch availability - not so good.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I loved it and hope to continue the positive experiences!
Interests
English movies, books and series. Playing the flute, travelling ( of course ^^), being with funny and interesting people. Hard to pin my interest down. In general I love havin a good time, talking to people, watching a movie, being out there, seeing new stuff and simply life in the moment.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
shook hands with dalai lama, been to paris and rome, got to stay with a friend in aberdeen, amazing friends and family, being able to profit from a small-village, close-knit community and yet to grow up sort of globetrotter-y
