About Me

At the same time as I was writing my bachelor's thesis, the idea of travel came up. Through numerous interviews with experts from different fields, such as economic geography, travel and tourism research, international tourism management as well as market research, my research was intensified.

My aim of the trip is to encourage all those who do not dare to take this step into the unknown and do not give voice to their dreams. Above all, I want to help the girls and women of the world. What shocks me the most are the statements I hear when I talk about my idea of travelling. "You alone, as a woman on a motorbike?" or "Wouldn't you like to find a friend to accompany you, then at least you won't be alone on the road? "My answer to this: "No, why should I put my dream, my goals, my ideas on the back burner?" I am well aware of what a privileged position I am in, having grown up in a country like Germany. I have received an education here that many girls in this world only dream of. This is exactly why I want to make this journey, to break out of the German caste thinking. I want to face foreign people and their culture with openness and become aware of what actually counts in life, but more importantly, I want to look back and see how many young girls I was able to help.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As much as I like camping, sometimes it is nice to have a real roof over your head. I love to stay with locals, cook dinner and make some new friends. :)
I am also curious about their travel story’s but more to hear their perspective of living. In general I admire the CS spirit, for me it brings people all around the world together. ❤️

With this community you are never alone a long the road if you don’t like to.

“Traveling solo but not alone”

Interests

I love to cook, I would say my biggest hobby is to try local food (food the region is famous for). Very interested in other cultures, love to go out and have fun. I am also a huge nature and animal lover!!
