About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy Life & stay relaxed

ABOUT ME

open minded, friendly and communicative; a city and animal lover; independent; vegetarian; interested in Yoga, Meditation, nice coffee places, good fresh food and interesting atmospheres; just fell in love with playing the Ukulele

I am very interested in mobile living structures (Houseboots, Containers, alternative Caravans etc.) and would love to meet people, who have experience with living in those

Right now I am finishing my Master Studies in "Design Studies" at an Art School in Germany. Max is an engineer, working for a furniture company.

PHILOSOPHY

not wise enough yet; but I believe, that you can only change the way people are treating each other, them selves and other beings, by working on your self so u can be a role model. I think that all the experiences which can be possible through things like cs, help your own personal growth and in the long run everybody u meet. listen to the trial of Socrates.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've started coucshurfing in 2012 during a 3 month travel in Canada and the US, I am really excited to start also hosting, explore my own city, Basel, with couchsurfers. I am looking forward to get to know Croatia during a 2 week travel with my boyfriend Max.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My cs experiences have been all very special to me! Thank u everybody!

Interests

I am very interested in design and architecture. Getting more about their Aesthetic is my big passion and profession. Always open to good exhibitions and interesting museums. Jazz is a wonderful life-soundtrack; dogs make me laugh; to hang around in cafes, enjoy the day, watch people passing bye is one of my favourite activities; getting rid of your "cultural glases" for a moment and open up for a new way to see things; Snowboarding; Skiing; fresh &organic vegetarian food; i like wrapping presents

Teach, Learn, Share
