CURRENT MISSION

to understand how things work (here in Germany and abroad)

ABOUT ME

I moved to Berlin in October 2008 and felt at home in this city immediately. Here I studied architecture and civil engineering and just graduated in architecture. Berlin is a really inspiring place with its special history and the current change of urban life in the different parts of the city.
Besides I am curious to see other cities, their development and how people live there. I like conversations with people from foreign countries, to get to know their culture and habits.

PHILOSOPHY

Be honest, social and greatful! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am always curious about the every day life of people who live in the place I travel to. I like to explore a place on my own but also stay there with people who know the place much better than me, to discover aspects that you don't find in the travel guide, to learn new things, to share experience / impressions and to get to know interesting people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

If I don't know anybody in a place where I'm traveling to, couchsurfing is my favourite type of accomodation! I tried it in several cities and met interesting and friendly people everywhere.
