Overview
About Me
first thing you have to know about me: I hate summarizing myself, but I guess most people don't like describing themselves. I study English and French at a University in Cologne and I've lived here for three years now. Of course if one studies languages you could conclude that they like speaking foreign languages very much and that they like discovering new cultures. In my case that is true.
I'm pretty busy these days as I occupy two minor jobs (one of them is to walk a super cute doggy <3 ) and I'm currently writing on my bachelor thesis about post-war drama in Britain. If you're a weird theatre kid, I'm sure we'd get along well ;)
My friends say that I am fun to hang out with and that I'm funny, despite the fact that I have an awful obsession with puns and other bad jokes. Also I am open-minded, polite and creative, but just so you know: I am also a really chaotic person and my room looks like it :D
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love meeting new people and speaking foreign languages so don't be shy and simply ask if you can sleep on my couch! Also it would be nice to give back in a way as I had the chance to couchsurf on two couches of two lovely people already :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Only one? Though nut, it's so hard to choose between all my heroic accomplishments... No just kidding ;)
I did organize a clothes-changing-party with a friend of mine. You give away the clothes you don't wear anymore and you can get the clothes someone also didn't want anymore for free. I think that was an amazing event.

I can teach a little German and I would like to improve my language skills (especially french and turkish)
