About Me

CURRENT MISSION

one girl, one planet and her backpack

ABOUT ME

Hey there!

My name is Christin. I am 25 years old.
I come from Germany and moved to Berlin a couple of years ago.
Now you will find me somewhere in the world!

In the morning I need coffee to be a lovely person.

For the rest of the day, I love doing some sport, listening to music, relaxing, eating, writing, sleeping, traveling, reading, talking trash, meeting friends, laughing, philosophizing, dancing, drawing, drinking some frothies and enjoy life.

I quit my job in 2011 - the best decision of my life.

Since october 2011, I visited eleven countries.
I started in South East Asia, traveled all the way down till Australia and finally arrived in South America a month ago.

Traveling around the world.
Getting a tan. Falling in love and never return.

PHILOSOPHY

We travel, initially, to lose ourselves and we travel, next, to find ourselves.

One's destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am traveling at the moment.
When I am back in Berlin,
I am more than happy to host people or just catch up for some drinks!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Since I'm traveling I like to mix it up a bit.
Camping, hostels, sleeping in cars, hammocks and some Couchsurfing.
Especially in Australia, I almost did couchsurfing for a year.
Same place, same couch, same best house mate/ host ever.
