CURRENT MISSION

To see as much of the world as I can before potentially moving away from Europe!

ABOUT ME

I'm early 30s, female, non-smoker, from the US, lived for a while in Germany, and am currently living in England. My time in England has been great but I may be moving away from Europe soon so am hoping to see as much of Europe as I can while I'm still nearby.

Moving to a new country for my PhD, I enjoy meeting new people from around the world and learning about their cultures. I spend most of my time outside-academics out-of-doors and enjoy running, rowing, hiking, biking, and most anything that involves not sitting at a computer!

PHILOSOPHY

I'm fairly easy going. I don't see why I should try to impose any ideas on others ... and am open to meeting people of all backgrounds, etc.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am happy to host people coming through Chelmsford and am also interested in couchsurfing myself.

Interessen

I play the violin.
I speak German, though need to practice it more to remember!
I like being outside - walking, running, rowing, anything outside, esp in good weather!
Despite being an engineer, I enjoy learning about history and other cultures.
Favorite TV shows: Doctor Who, Sherlock, Torchwood, The Killing, Waterloo Road, etc. If you enjoy any of these, we'll get along brilliantly!!

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I am into drama/crime TV shows, books about historical fiction and science, and music of all sorts. It's generally pretty difficult to find something I don't enjoy!

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Perhaps the most amazing thing I've done is the Coast to Coast Walk. I'd never gone camping on my own before, let alone done a long-distance hike -- so I was pretty amazed when I'd managed to cross England! I was going to add 'by myself' but it was definitely not alone as I met so many cool people along the way and we helped each other out as well as told entertaining stories to pass the time. Sort of like a mobile couchsurfing I suppose!
