My name is Janka, I'm speech-therapist and I'm originally from Germany. I love to travel around the world and to explore new cultures and languages. Right now I am traveling together with Chris. Chris is engineer, plays piano and guitar and he is crazy about new food experiences. Both of us are fluent in English and we like to have fascinating, serious or funny talks about culture, food, languages and experiences.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Exploring the world together with nice people. Cultural exchange is the best way to learn how beautiful different other parts of the world can be. I like that staying with locals and experiencing their life and thoughts gives you a far deeper understanding of the culture than any other way of traveling.

Interessen

I am passionate about new languages. It's so amazing how learning just a few new words can open a whole new world. Also I love to cook and to experience new recipes. When I find the time, I'll read a lot. To stay active and have fun I love to do some different kind of sports (running, yoga) and dancing Salsa, Bachata and Kizomba.
