Hi there, I'm Jenny :)

At the moment I'm travelling - and I'm very excited and feel blessed about it :)
I plan to travel Europe in a southwesterly direction. I want to hike, meet new people and cultures, help and live on organic farms and in communities. I'm really interesed to learn more about gardening esp. permaculture, building with natural materials, community life and communication :)

All in all I'm a calm, empathetic, independent and open-minded person. Maybe at first I seem a little quiet but I'm mindful and sometimes just need a little time :) I'm also good at listening and love to learn new things. A sustainable lifestyle is very important for me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet new people and communities, get a wider perspective of the world, learning about different and alternative ways of living, learning about our similarities and differences :)

Interests

I love beeing outside in the nature - I like mountains, the sea, the sun, hiking, climbing, swimming :) Sustainability is very important to me and I'm always interested in learning about sustainable
alternatives. I have experience with living in community and like to be around people, but of course need some private space from time to time. I like meeting new people or old friends, learn about each others differences and similarities, laugh together, listen to each other, respect and understand each other and be nice. I like music and dancing. I love to cook, especially vegetarian/vegan meals, and would be very happy to exchange some recipes if you are interested. Also I like sports, yoga and meditation.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking through the Bulgarian mountains. My friend and me walked two weeks from Sofia through Rila and Pirin mountains to Melnik. It was a great experience. Everything I needed was in my backpack and I carried it around all the time. So I learned that I don't need that much to live. The nature was amazing and I enjoyed it the whole day. It was like calming down to a point of origin. And we also experienced some adventures like getting lost and walking through the mountain in the dark night without any clue... And the Bulgarian people are really nice. It was always a pleasure to meet them.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think you can learn something from everyone.
Thoughts, love, a way of life...
