ABOUT ME

I am 20 years old. Currently I live in Atlanta, Georgia but I am from the south of Germany. I am working as a full-time volunteer at the Samaritan House of Atlanta, an agency which works with homeless people. My main job is to manage our kitchen.
I like doing sports, especially soccer, table tennis and volleyball. Furthermore I enjoy meeting friends, listening to music or playing the piano. Moreover I like talking about politics and history. I am especially interested in American politics and I am always glad to hear more about it.
I am open-minded, tolerant and don't expect anything but that from a host or a couch surfer.

PHILOSOPHY

“It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried.”

Winston Churchill

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just joined the Community. My roommate took me on a couchsurfing trip to Chicago. We had an awesome experience, so I decided to join the Community. Right now, I am figuring out how I can participate. But I can already say, I would be happy to host you.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I did couchsurfing just once so far. I was in Chicago for a couple days and our hosts, 4 college students, showed us around in the whole city. I was very impressed by their motivation to support us because I just expected a place to sleep and not more, but for sure, they made our experience way richer.
