About Me

Hey! I'm Celina, 24 years old
I study medicine in Germany and right now I’m doing my PhD in neurology. One of my big hobbies and passion is cheerleading, which I started doing when I was 7 and still love to this day :)

What fascinates me the most is human connection and how much we can use it as a source for our well being. I think there is so much power and beauty in being vulnerable and raw and showing your authentic self to others. Kindness, openness and tolerance and key features to me which I try to bring across with others.

Other than that I love new adventures, travelling and the nature. I really enjoy climbing and hiking or just relaxing in a park or near a lake.

Another one of my interest also are second hand stores, exploring local markets and handmade stuff so if you want we can stroll through them together

So far I’ve couchsurfed in
- Prag 2019
- Zurich and Bern 2021
- Eindhoven & Maastricht 2022

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really love travelling but I think the best way to get to know a country and its culture is to meet new people from there and spend time with them. There are so many different people all around the world, I believe everyone can teach me something different.

I like to solo-travel but I’m never really alone because there will always be people I meet on my way. It’s refreshing to see other people being themselves and living their authentic life

The places I've been I met so many nice people and made good memories with them. I hope there will be a lot of other people that I will meet and with which I can explore the country together :)

Couchsurfing is the place I can connect with people who have the same interest in live and humans and want to connect

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was an Au-pair in Chile and lived in Santiago for 3 months. I used my time off to see other places in Chile and see this amazing country. I quickly feel in love not just with the places and nature but also the people, being very welcoming and friendly. This kinda started my travel journey and made me see the value in meeting other cultures and spending time with people you’ve just met but still connecting and enjoying this unique time

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to learn about life from all kinds of people :)
That’s why I like Couchsurfing so much because it connects people that otherwise wouldn’t get to know each other

Let’s respect and appreciate each other. Looking past the things that divide us and instead focus on what we share and connect us on a deeper human level

What I Can Share with Hosts

My thoughts and feelings and just how I think about life in general. We can talk about culture, life, philosophy and everything that interests you and me.

Also I love cooking and baking so I would love to show you my vegan cooking skills :D
Food is awesome, we can also go to eat together ^^
