Born and bred in North Rine-Westphalia, Germany, I have been working and living in different cities of this area for many years now.

I love to have good conversations, concerts, festivals, bars, restaurants and like to cook for other people.
My friends would describe me as a big movie and music maniac: these are always things I like to know from other people :)

A glass if of wine in a bar is always a good plan. What kind of people impress me the most? I like people with a warm heart and a good sense of humor, who love life, have ambitions, want to see the world and have a story to tell.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Since I was small I loved traveling. It makes me happy to meet new people, perspectives, foods and cultures.

I made a big decision: I quit my job in December 2016; since 1st March 2017 I am on the road traveling the world.

I just booked a ticket to Thailand and lived the "jut go with the flow" motto since then.

From my personal experience I know that the best things might happen while you're doing the first steps. You meet people, have inspiring moments which will tell you where to go next... I just will follow my heart and meet good people. That's how it works!

I do not use Couchsurfing to save money. Never ever. I am here to meet people, get to their stories and to deepdive into a new country and city.
If you read my profile carefully: Please be aware of the fact that Couchsurfing is not a dating platform. I do not travel to find a husband or a boyfriend. It seems that I have to write that explicitly as I receive many message a day asking for dates. Plus: In my CS history male hosts really seemed to confuse CS with Tinder......

For many years I studied and worked as a maniac – now it's time for me to take some time for myself and see the world. It will be an unlimited time full of new possibilities. And i feel happy that I am able to do that.
