About Me

Finished my studies last year and started working now. It is kind of different with less time to travel. Still looking forward to every minute.

Between high school and now I travelled a lot. I had some time working and travelling in New Zealand and South East Asia. Did an internship in the US and an exchange semester in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sometimes it is easy to meet locals, sometimes it seems to be a bit more complicated. I love to meet new people and experience tiny bits of the different things in their countries. Therefore couchsurfing is an amazing opportunity no matter if it is for an actuall overnight stay, a drink in a bar or a hike.

I had some great experiences while surfing in houses or trucks :D and really love to give the same experiences back to other Surfers, although it is quite difficult with my current living situation.
