My name is Clara, living in Cologne, Germany, and I'm a passionate traveler. I've already traveled in Europe and Latin America and I want to get to know more places and people. I studied education science and I'm working at the university of Cologne.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think Couchsurfing is a wonderful opportunity to get to know people, languages and culture all over the world. I already made great experiences in Brazil.

movies: Moonrise Kingdom (I like many films from Wes Anderson), A Single Man, Seven, Fargo, Moonlight...
series: Girls, Transparent, The Killing, True Detective, Game of Thrones, Tatortreiniger...
books: Americanah (Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie), Momo (Michael Ende), The Kite Runner (Khaled Hosseini)...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There are still amazing things to see and to do :) But one amazing thing I did was a three month seasonal job in Switzerland. My friend and me had to take care of 80 cattle. We lived in a little wooden house, 2500m high in the Alps with no electricity and hot water. Pure nature.

Teach, Learn, Share

I used to be a tennis teacher. When you are interested in learning tennis, I'm willing to teach you some lessons. And I used to teach german language. Interested in learning German?
