About Me

Currently I'm travelling through New Zealand and Australia for 5 months before I'm going back to Germany and my old job as a social worker in July 2016.

Back in Cologne where I live I'm staying in a tiny appartment right now so unfortunately I can't host anyone at the moment.

Since I'm 23 I'm travelling a lot...most of the times to Uganda which became my second home. I used to work there in a centre for families with children who have disabilities. I loved my job there as it was really rewarding and I love the way of life in Africa. These people have not much to live but they are much more happy than we are in the western countries. I found this quite impressive and I'm trying to live in a similar way. It doesn't count how big your appartment is or how expensive and fast your car is. The only thing that counts is that you are happy with what you are doing and that the people around you enrich your life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on CS because I love to meet new people from all over the world. And life is all about helping and supporting each other though you have never met these people before. Thats the great thing about the CS community.
