About Me

I was born in a hospital, but grew up outside in the nice countryside of Switzerland ;-)

During my years of travel I have used Couchsurfing a lot, which has enabled me to meet lovely people from all around the world. I love to dive into the culture with all its noices, smells, food, languages etc. Travelling is in my opinion the best way to learn things in ones life, and it is also a great opportunity to share about your own country and culture.
During my cycling trips I have also used warmshowers quite often and in return was able to host people in my place (my profile: https://www.warmshowers.org/user/171799?check_logged_in=1)

After having traveled different parts of the world, I rejoined the univerity and became a student of Social Work. In my free time I like to do sports such as running, cycling, bouldering or going for a hike in the mountains.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

sharing, showing around
