This will not be a good description of myself because couchsurfing just told me that I can't find hosts if this is not updated but I am in a real rush, so here we go: I love travelling and getting to know different cultures and people, because I think it's the best way to discover more about myself and step by step break all those prejudices that exist out there in the world. I'm a very chatty person, love talking about basically anything, have fun learning new things and like to think I'm open minded! Oh and I promise that even though I'm German I definitely am not completely deprived of my sense of humour ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Every day has some great things to it...

But if I had to chose, I did an all so popular 'gap year' in Spain but it truly was amazing. I learnt an incredible amount, got to travel a lot, met wonderful people and really did change my perspective on many things in the world.

A charity hitchhike from Edinburgh to Barcelona (or at least, that's what it should have been).

An amazing university project in Zambia, working with kids and other people from the UK. It was my first time travelling outside of Europe. And seeing (+ FEELING) Victoria Falls there was unforgettable too.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Canada, Cyprus, England, Finland, France, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Romania, Scotland, Spain, United States, Zambia
