Last year I quit my job and started traveling, volunteering and hitchhiking in the Middle East on my own. I really enjoyed these intense 8 months, but also wanted to come closer to my own culture again. So I traveled north to Armenia, Georgia, Russia and finally Iceland. While traveling I think the best was meeting local people and learning about their way of living.
Now I'm back in Germany, still trying to figure out what to do with my life and ready to host. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet people of different backgrounds and I think that trusting foreign people and getting their trust back is a great experience.
I'm partly sad about being back in Germany, but on the other hand I'm already looking forward to being able to give sth back to the world as a host. :)
