Hi! I am Erika – a graphic design student from Germany.
I love art, photography, animals and tomato soup. I live a vegan lifestyle and want to contribute to make the earth a safer place.

I want to learn about other people, cultures, projects, the world around me and also inside me. I want to learn a lot more and explore the world and all the beautiful things it has to offer. I hope I can go on new adventures and make valuable experience while also helping other people out with my skills.

So far I have been to Thailand, Cambodia, France and Portugal. I would love to visit the Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia and Japan.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel for as long as possible, make new experiences and make new connections, that's why I believe couchsurfing is a great option for me that I want to explore.
