Moin! After spending 22 and a half years in the north of Germany I decided to follow my gut feeling and did an 11 months long voluntary service in an orphanage in South India. My happiest time! Now I’m back in Germany, getting prepared for my next travel: Via North India to New Zealand. Let’s see where life takes me!

(Actually I’m a graphic designer who’s passion is art, but won’t get happy in that business.)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To be honest I started using Couchsurfing as a free and easy way to travel through India, but it didn’t take long and I fell in love with meeting so many different people, getting to know their story and experience different ways of living, far away from the tourism bubble. Couchsurfing makes me feel what I believe in: We’re one world! (I don’t believe in imaginary borders!)

Interests

I love CrossFit and being active, challenging my body to the limit and getting rid of stress. To live and eat vegan and healthy, be sensitive about my body makes me happy (without forcing others to do the same, don’t worry!). Those two things combined keeps me going on. Added with a good rest in the company of interesting and lovely people.
I love to be aware of doing no harm to my environment (humans included). No plastic, no fast fashion, no sexism, no racism, no homophobia! Let’s spread love instead of trying to challenge each other! We should be one big community, doesn’t matter where we’re from.
