I love to travel around the world, learn more about other cultures, countries and their people and like to learn languages... they are fascinating me. I even learned a bit Arabian, Russian etc., but it's not like talking them fluently.
My biggest love is Latinamerica... Spanish... Salsa... ritmos latinos... LA COMIDA! I really love to eat... good stuff, self-made, I love to cook... anyway...
At the moment I live in Hannover, the capital of Lower Saxony in Germany, but I was born in the beautiful Lueneburger Heide, a region a bit more up in the north.
I love to meet people, have a good conversation and spend some time together.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am here because I went abroad a quite long time, about five months. I started in Peru, then headed to Bolivia and from there to Ecuador, Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama and Colombia. I have quite a lot of friends over there and I really needed to see them, but I visited so much more places where I didn't have friends (now I have), and it was just great! :-)
On the other hand: I always had vivistors from all over the world here in my small appartment (mainly friends of friends), and I always loved to show them my town and sights of interest. As I worked eight years for the Tourist Information Board in Hannover, I guess I may tell you a lot of interesting things about Hannover and its history, people and culture.
