About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My dream is to travel the world in 80 days, but as that might not be possible now, I'll start by travelling around Europe during my vacations, to get a feeling for it and to prepare for my big mission

ABOUT ME

I am female, 29 years old, student. I am most of the time a happy, cheerful person, honest, open minded, spontaneous, very curiouse and easy going.
I like to spend a lot of time with my friends, do yoga, bouldering and other sports and cook. But most of all I of course enjoy to travel the world, get to know new places, cultures and find new friends. I love to try new things and go on adventures.

PHILOSOPHY

I just try to get the best out of every day because life is just to short and precious to waste it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I did some couchsurfing in Australia, Portugal, Ireland, Scotland, Russia and America and met wonderful people!!!

Interests

I fill my free time with traveling as I have already explained. Apart from that I do what most students do in their leisure time: eat (I really like to cook and bake),enjoy cultural life, meet friends, party and last but not least I like to lie in the sun to relax and let go. To stock up my pocket money I work from time to time as a harvester at an organic farm and in a coffee rostery. In doing so you learn to appreciate your food a lot more and besides, digging in the earth for potatoes is wonderful almost like a treasure hunt. It is hard work but also a nice offset for students daily routine. I am also into sports, I go to the gym and like jogging, volleyball and badminton.
