I am 21 years old, I was born in Berlin in Germany, which will always be my favorite city though I moved to Leipzig, Germany to study biology at University... which turned out to be a beautiful place as well!
When I'm not occupied studying, I enjoy cooking and baking a lot. It doesn't matter wether it's just for me and my roommate or for a large group of friends with whom I will sit together for a while, put music on, eat and drink together to enjoy the evening or morning.
Another thing I really like is rowing. Being on the water and surrounded by the silent nature always succeeds to clear my head and I feel way better afterwards. I try to also go running twice a week.
Quality me-time is for me when I can grab a book or a newspaper, make a cup of coffee and relax on the couch or the green balcony of my appartment and read.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it's the best way to experience as much of a country including its culture as possible. I hope to meet some great people who not only offer me a place to stay but also tell me a little bit about their country, their cultural traditions and the place where they live.
