Being for the first time abroad during a school exchange with Lyon in France, I realized that I like the feeling of meeting new people, speaking a different language and seeing new places a lot. From then on I took as many oportunities as I could get to go abroad. Especially the two longer stays abroad shaped me in many respects. I spent my 11th year of school at a high school in Phoenix, Arizona in the US. After finishing up school I did a 10-month voluntary service in Togo in Westafrica. In Togo (to be more precise in Agou Nyogbo) I worked in a library offering for example additional courses for the school kids in the afternoon.

Since two years I have been studying biophysics in Berlin, however the semester coming up I will spend in Madrid as an interantional student. I am very happy to get another chance to live abroad for a longer time!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like being part of an international community whose idea it is to offer more than just a place to sleep to foreigners!
