About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Carpe diem !

ABOUT ME

we are kind, open-minded, generous couple that spontaniously decided to study abroad (meaning in Germany), wishing to expand their horizons , to be inspired by new frendships, different cultures and opportunities that students have in Europe :)))

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Jelena's first CS experience was on 29 of December 2012.
I was supposed to take a flight from Stuttgart to my homeland on 30.12. quite early in the morning, but I there wasn't any transport options on the very morning. So decided to try my luck by creating a CS profile!
And...I found a place to stay 10 min away from the airport!! My host Meredith was throwing a New Year's Eve party the next day, so I helped her to make some cakes and terrific music playlists.

A better end of year I couldn't wish for :D

Interests

Studying abroad is much more than being a successful student. For us is equally important to integrate by traveling around, meeting the locals, taking part on events organised for students -not just parties, than initiatives and international projects :D
Keep Moving is our free-time moto -> we dance (free style!) passionatly everytime we go out :D
