ABOUT ME
Hey,
I'm a 28 years old Girl from Germany.
The first time I heard about couchsurfing was actually 2007 when I travelled Australia. I think it is a really good idea.
I am interessted in different cultures how they live what they do how they celebrate different things.
I was living with some families in Australia (wwoofing) and it was great and I think to get to know the life in another country the best thing to do is living with them.
In Germany I worked mainly as a travel agent and a fitnessinstructor and sometimes as a photographer and journalist for the local press.
Nowadays I do different kind of work all around the world - mainly still in tourism
PHILOSOPHY
There's got to be,
something better than this
and I'm gonna
get up, get out, and do it!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
As I work most of the time all around the world I do not have so much time to host. But I have hosted twice when I was living in Sweden.
I sometimes go to meetings from the CS community.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I went to some CS meetings in New Zealand and I surfed a few couches in Europe. Mainly in Sweden where some of them became really good friends by now.
I only hosted twice while living in Sweden and it was always a great experience.

I love doing canyoning and the best one so far was definitely the "Sleeping God Canyon" on the Coromandel Peninsula in New Zealand.
Sleeping in the middle of nowhere in the outback in Australia was an expierence for me :-)
a sledgdogsafarie in norway, that brought me to my current job in Finland.
