Hey guys,

We are a couple living in Leipzig
Emilie is start-up founder at Hülsenreich (www.huelsenreich.de) and former food blogger (emiliestreats.de). As you can tell, she is really passionate about food, a hobby that is very visible at our home as well. To feel more hungry more often to indulge in even more food she’s rides her bikes for many miles, does yoga and is active throughout her week.
Bastian is working in Berlin and spends a good part of his life nowadays in trains. He is very much into electronic music and enjoys a rave. When he is not working or sitting in trains, he likes to play beach volleyball.

After we finished high school, we spent a year traveling through New Zealand and Bali, an experience that shaped us in many different ways and pathed our way for even more travels in the future. Now we are active CS-hosts and surfers and love getting to know new people.
If you would like to stay with us, we appreciate a nice request message that tells us a bit about you and your plans. As you will be staying in a shared room (a.k.a. our living room) or outside on the lodgia in summer time we won't be able to host you for more than three nights!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We made our first CS steps in India, which was the best thing we could have done. It opened up new worlds for us and made us realize (again!) that the best way to travel a country is to spend as much time with the locals as you can.
We've been wwoofing and on workaway as well and find each platform extremely useful while traveling.

We started hosting people in our flat in Halle. Many great people came through and some live long friends were made.
