Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
We are Steffen, Franka and India, a German family, who loves traveling. Lots of our references you can also find on my partners profile: https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/franka_and_steve
See as much places, meet as much pleople, get as much experiences, learn as much, be free as much as possible!
Since October 2013 it is 3 of us. With our daughter India we traveled to the Canary Islands, Thailand, Japan, and Australia, where we traveled and lived for 4 years. Our big mission is to show our little daughter this beautiful world and its people so that she will grow up with lots of cultures, languages, respect and tolerance - living a simple but happy life! At the end of 2019 we will come back to Europe and want to explore it, in the hope to maybe find a new place to live.
ABOUT US
We are funny, amicable, nice, interested, chilled, enthusiastic, sporty, friendly, creative, cosmopolitan people who like snowboarding, yoga, surfing, beach volleyball and rock climbing. We also enjoy to cook, eat, drink, dance and a good laugh. We are interested in movies, books, music and especially people. Franka plays the guitar, India likes to sing and dance, and Steffen is a good music listener ;-) We love being outdoors and hike a lot. And we like to meet many interesting people!
PHILOSOPHY
Don't wait too long, as life could be over before you fulfill your dreams!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
While traveling we always tried to bring as much love, life and happiness in our host's homes as possible. When we temporarily settled in Goerlitz, Germany, to have our daughter, we enjoyed offering a couch for others. Now that we are on the road again, we hope to find new friends, who would also accept a little family. In Australia we were not able to offer couchsurfing, as we are house sitting ourselves.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
With all our surfs in Canada, U.S., Chile, New Zealand, Australia, Singapore, Indonesia, Vietnam, China, Kenya, South Africa, Dubai, and England we only had amazing experiences.
While being in Germany we were hosting and it was amazing to bring the world on our own couch. Thanks, CS!
