My name is Gerke, I am 21 years old an from Bremen - a small but lovely city in the north of Germany.
I finished University in 2016 and I am traveling currently through Latin America for a few months. I am outgoing, easy to handle and keen to try out new things.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

It is important to me to not only visit countries and say "I am a globetrotter - check out my instagram" - by hanging out with locals it is possible to get to know to the culture way better and right now it helps as well to improve my Spanish skills.

Interesses

I try to challenge myself as often as I can - it does not matter if it is with sport, an intelectual discussion/topic or just a new surrounding where I first have to acclimate myself. The main premise is to get out of my comfort zone and learn from risks/experiences of others!

Músicas, Filmes e Livros

Honestly, my favorite music depends extremely on my daily mood. You can catch me with Hip Hop, Jazz, Swing (electro), Rap, Classic (I also danced standard for over 4 years) and sometimes even Charts. So my taste in music can be defined as "all over the place".

Movies and Books - trust me, the space would not be enough to list them all.
I especially try to read as much as I can and consequently I am sure there will be enough basis for a discussion about any movie/book you want.
