Overview
About Me
Hello! I'm Constance and I'm living with my boyfriend Philipp in Berlin. We both grew up in the North but live in capital for quite a time now. Philipp is currently doing his bachelor degree in mechatronics and I'm holding a bachelor degree in China and East-Asian studies and will start my Masterdegree in British Studies this autumn. I'm mostly focus on environmental and energy topics and I'm also engaged a local political group.
What you can expect from us as a guest and host:
We are tidy and calm, more interested in books and music than parties and clubs. Philipps loves to cook (and he's quite good) and I'm intressed in all sort of political and cultural related depates.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I have spend the Tet festival with friend and their family in a farmer village somewhere in the nowhere of Vietnam. My tip: Never ever drink Self-made scorpion booze!
I stayed with a incredible nice Japanese restaurant owner in Kamakura and meet a lot of friendly and loveable people.
I climed the Chinese Wall - the non-restored part - in the middle of winter; only wearing sneakers.
In Xiamen I worked for two Germans in a crafting beer bar.
Got stuck in a French underground parking with a T4 VW bus. Sacré bleu.
Lived with a super friendly Scottish women for three month in Edingburg. Still couldn't understand her partners Scottish after all.
Teach, Learn, Share
I have superficial knowledge about a lot of things. Politics, history, culture, art, environmental friendly livestyle. You name it. If I'm not studying or working then I'm spending my time with a local green youth group, biking around the city or simply meeting friends.
Philipp has a deep interest in music and also plays up to 3 instruments. He's a excellent cook and loves to have spicyness competition.
We both like to travel, cook and care for our growing collection of houseplants.
