About Me

Hey there :)
Im a masters student of pedagocial psychology (all the fascinating things about how we learn and how science works) and am currently spending some time abroad in Norway - og prøve å lære noe norsk ;)

I love exploring new places with a calm coffee and when the people around you chose to share some stories from their life with you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

"If you want to learn about a culture, listen to the stories.” ~ Michael Margolis

Thanks to CS I was able to travel through Scottland with my bestfriend after finishing highschool. We had the chance to met so many great people that made this journey an wonderful experience!
Whenever I travel without couchsurfing I miss the deeper connection to the place and people that you get through CS...

So thanks to all the people out there sharing their lives for some hours or some days :)

Interests

I love to learn some new things (all the big and the small things).
And coffee, a good book and sunshine are keys to happiness ;)

  • books
  • coffee
  • crochet
  • languages
  • cooking and eating
  • late night talks
  • collecting new recipes

Music, Movies, and Books

I love to read fantasy and intent to keep my liked songs on Spotify as wild and diverse as possible (so pls share a song that sparks joy with you if you feel like it).

Favorite book is absolutely "Cloud Atlas" by David Mitchell - can highly reccomend ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sitting right on the edge at the Cliffs of Moher in Ireland, looking over the stormy Atlantic and feeling free and unbreakable.

...and hiking for three hours through a heavy storm on the Isle of Skye and it's volcano Bruach na Frìthe with no sight of civilization any close...

...and maybe jumping into the (very cold) canals of Amsterdam with kind strangers at midnight - creating our own "New Years Eve Cellebration" in August ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always open for long talks and love to prepare and share meals together!

Current mission: fill a recipe notebook with wonderful dishes from around the world ... and learn how to ferment my own drinks (favourite so far: mango-ginger beer)!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Always a smile and some fun stories :)
Besides I will be happy to help where I can - or invite you for a beer or cook for you!
