Life is fun - and that is what I want to share. My goal in life is to inspire other people and get inspired by them. I really appreciate it to spend my time with positive, open-minded, warm-hearted, and tolerant people. After travelling Canada with my van for a year, I'm constantly looking for new adventures and people to explore beyond our horizon. I love to do creative work such as making films, writing books and blogs and to live out of my comfort zone. I'm a psychology student who loves to spread joy, love and always listens to what's important to other people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me, the only way to grow in the game of life is to spend time with various people from different cultures all over the globe. That's why I love to travel around a lot. I love telling stories and listening to yours - as well as creating new ones together. Living a typical tourist live bores be, what's more exciting to me is exploring mother nature's beauty and the variety of different people, cultures, and traditions out there! Giving and sharing is my mantra.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Me and my friends decided to travel Europe by car. During our roadtrip, we decided to learn a new instrument. After 3 days, we had our very first ukulele concert at Laggo Maggiore, Italy.
I also think of travelling Canada in my van for a year, which allowed me to ride husky sleighs, learn surfing and snowboarding and even write a book about it!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to share experiences from my journeys through Canada and Europe, as well es having deep conversations about the nature of things. I can also enrich our conversation with my knowledge about psychology. But way more important than what I have to offer is listening to you, just to dive into something that is interesting and empowering for both of us.
