About Me

My friends describe me as relaxed, easy-going and with a good sense of humour.

I am interested what is going on in the world. I guess that why I studied International Relations and Development. (I lived in Brighton, UK to go to Sussex University)

I live in Berlin since January 2015. I used to work for an online travel company with goes well with my passion for traveling.

Beside that I am politically active in fighting for rights of asylum seekers. My dream world would be a world without borders and nations :).

I also love nature and am a bit of an eco-warrior.

Oh and I drink a lot of tea :).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like the idea to stay with locals to get an idea of the real life of a place beside all the tourist stuff.

I also like to meet new and interesting people who love traveling as well.

I also think that sharing is caring. So sharing your place with someone else is a fantastic idea.

Interests

I am an anarchist.

So I like to go to more underground places. I am more than happy to show you some squats, urban gardens etc.

I am also interested in history. I always like to learn new things you do not necessary learn at school.

  • cooking
  • drinking
  • traveling
  • hiking
  • history

Music, Movies, and Books

I love live music and to have a dance. I know some clubs that are not Berghain ;)

I listen to almost everything from Punk to Reggae etc. As long as it has a good rhythm and you can feel it.

I like stories about dystopian societies such as 1984. Don't know why, but yeah I do :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cara Delevingne has saved me once, true story!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Please be aware that I live in a small one room student dorm (have my own shower, kitchen space). I got a couch for one person and I can host more people if they are happy with sleeping on the floor. But you will not have your own room. Just to make sure you are ok with that.
Also I will not reply to copy and paste messages. Please tell me what you would like to do in Berlin, why you would like to stay with me and tell me a lame joke.

For example:

Q: What is the best thing about Switzerland?

A: I don't know but the flag is a big plus!
