About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I like to meet lots of different people, share positive experiences and travel the world!

ABOUT ME

I'm born in Essen, a beautiful city in western Germany with its lovely World Cultural Heritage "Zollverein".
After finishing school, I went to Australia for 1 year as Au-Pair and backpacker. Coming back to Germany, I did my Bachelor and Master degree in "Water Science", while taking any chance during my studies to see the world - I did my Bachelor thesis in Australia, my Master thesis in New Zealand and some practical courses in Denmark and Austria. In 2015, I moved to Karlsruhe for my PhD studies. I love to travel the world with my backpack on, especially in Asian countries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I got to know about couchsurfing through my first travels around Australia in 2008.
It's the best way to get to know people and the country - this way you don't just feel like a tourist and get to see so much more than you would ever see running around by yourself :-)

Interests

Of course I love to travel the world! :-)
I'm very passionate about nature and science and love to do research.
Further I like photography - I love taking photos of beautiful landscapes, animals and interesting people.
I have a diver's license and love to see the beautiful underwater world.
