I'm a US-American who has lived in Germany for more than 3 years as an English teacher. I'm also pursuing my master's degree in Linguistics and currently live with my boyfriend and our dog in Berlin. I love traveling and meeting people from all over the world! Feel free to message me anytime about staying with me. I prefer to accept guests close to my age.

TIP: I'm more likely to accept you as a guest if you write me a detailed personal note, your profile is detailed and gives me a good idea of who you are, and you have at least a few references.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I believe in the mission of Couchsurfing to facilitate intercultural interaction and understanding while sharing our resources. These days many people rely on hotels and tourist guides to travel, but it can be way more fun to stay with a local and have a unique experience!

兴趣

My hobbies are reading books (memoirs, politics/social justice, fiction), playing/listening to music (punk, rock, electronic, goth/industrial, metal), having awesome conversations over good food and beer and learning new languages. I love watching and talking about movies - I like everything from drama to cheesy 80s flicks to scifi/fantasy to horror. I play the piano and guitar, and also love animals! I'm a vegetarian but I don't mind if you eat meat when you stay with me.

教，学，和分享

I am great to practice English with, because I am an English teacher! I would also be thrilled if you helped me practice a language I am learning (German, French, Tagalog, Spanish) or taught me a few useful words/phrases in another language.
