Hello, hallo and konnichiwa!
My name is Julia Nozomi Franck and I am a half japanese, 20 year old girl from Germany. I grew up in a family of six and I have a very close relationship to mine. They teached me how to be open hearted, patient, reliable and of course how to have a lot of fun :)
I love being at new places, meeting people, learning about their life’s and their cultures and I am always curious about things behind my own horizon. One of my biggest hobbies next to music and photography is food and I love to try everything crossing my way, cook, bake or just help in the kitchen. I am usually a vegan, but during travels I am too curious about the food culture to stick completely to my diet ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just finished school and am now solo traveling with an open end. I started in Peru, continued in Colombia, came over Japan to Vietnam, Indonesia and Thailand. The plan is to add one more year of work and travel in New Zealand. I’d love to meet new people on my way and get to know the city by learning from the locals.

Interests

I started photographing when I was 18 and during my travels I got to love it even more and more.
I grew up with music, took piano and later singing lessons. As I said, I love cooking, baking and eating and also a nice chilled evening with tea, some dessert and good talks. Nevertheless, I am also up for going out, dancing and spend time with friends or friends-to-be.

Music, Movies, and Books

From jazz over classic, R&B and the 80s to tech house. I’m fine with every movie except horror and thriller and love the Harry Potter series (of course the books:) ).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveling solo all over the world, still not back home yet but still super exciting!

Teach, Learn, Share

I speak fluent japanese, english, german and a tiny bit of french and spanish. Besides that, I just like to talk about everything and nothing, share stories about traveling and the simple life, think loud about what we are and why we are.
