CURRENT MISSION

Exploring: Putting myself in new and exciting moments to eat and travel

ABOUT ME

Virginia-born, but really happily at heart Bostonian/German. Just finished University studying International Relations and German, and currently living in Berlin as a Masters Student. But other than that, I'm trying to stay flexible. I want to visit everywhere I can, whether that's from a book I've read, or from a one-off article I read on a Monday afternoon.

As long as I've been alive, I've wanted to read and write and drink some sort of hot drink (tea, coffee, hot chocolate, take your pick!). I'm not entirely sure if that makes me the "writing" sort, but I always enjoy a good book, and even though I may take more tea breaks than actually writing, you can always find me holed up in a bookshop with some hot chocolate, contentedly half dozing... or doing yoga.

PHILOSOPHY

Why do I live my life? Oh. Well I suppose because I have the opportunity to do so many amazing things, to make differences with each person that I meet and have the opportunity to help, I should. It makes sense to me, the idea to meet strangers. To say hello, and even for just a moment - feel the connection between you and the person on the street. You don't know what being kind could accomplish, so my philosophy is simply - why not?

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've couch surfed three times now :) Two times in Norway and once in Lithuania and I had a fantastic experience, that just makes me want to travel through couch surfing more!

I've hosted one girl in Dresden :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Twice for two nights each in Oslo, Norway. I had such an amazing experience and I'm so lucky that I got two great people to talk with and share the amazing city with!

Twice for two nights in Vilnius, Lithuania and I had the time of my life! Honestly these people could not be any nicer!

兴趣

Reading, writing, hot drinks (have I written this someplace before?), the internet, wearing warm clothing in freezing cold temperatures, frantically deciding to what to wear when going to the convenience store, warm sweaters, German, languages, school (I know, nerdy), and existing (but also cooking), yoga, baking, and attempting to run!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Going horseback riding alone for the first time in Iceland with some lovely older ladies and the instructors and becoming fast friends within the first 20 minutes while seeing some of the most beautiful sites I've ever seen in my life.

教，学，和分享

I can 100% and would be happy to talk about my life, experiences, how to make tea, how to write, history, dancing, yoga poses, cooking tips. I could share my clothing choices also, though I'm not entirely sure you'd want something like that. But we could have a cooking party too :)

Learning: Anything :) I'm happy to learn just about anything!

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

We could cook together and share recipes, or share experiences of life in general. :)
