Hi! I'm Christel (22yo), currently working as an AuPair in beautiful Melbourne. Starting my Aussie-experience in September, after getting my Bachelor in Early Childhood Education back in Germany, my brother is finally coming over and we're traveling a bit together. Anyway, we love to spend our money on (vegetarian) food and I try my best to become a surfergirl one day soon. We spend a lot of time outside looking for beautiful places, delicious meals and at the same time we aren't completely untalented in cooking.
As our time together in Australia is limited we are trying to get the best out of it and want to travel from Melbourne to Brisbane via Sydney.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing offers you two amazing experiences at the same time: getting to know amazing people and the fact to see the world without spending the big money. It is all about give and take, which I think is one of the most important things to learn as a part of a community.

Interests

I love everything dealing with music - going to concerts, listen to streetmusicians, sing at home and so on. Another passion is learning more about different cultures and people while I'm travelling.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love live music. Just give me a guy and him a guitar and I'll be dancing the whole night. Everything started with Oasis for me. Bands I would love to see, but haven't yet: Biffy Clyro, Frank Turner, Thirty seconds to Mars and lots more. Best concerts I have been to: Coldplay, Sticky Fingers and Irie Revoltes (German and French - just listen to it, I promise you'll dance!) and heaps of small groups and singers nobody would've ever heard of.
