ABOUT ME

Ahoi! Hallo! مرحبا! Salut! приве́т! ¡hola! Dumela! Ani Sogoma and Labas to all travellers in this world! My name is Karen and I am super excited to be in this world! Why? Because life is full of adventurous and enriching experiences! I am student of this life … well and formally of International Relations and Anthropology :)

Currently I am living in Beautiful Bamako/Mali where I am working for an exciting social Enterprise in the field of agriculture development and financial inclusion. Before, I have graduated in Paris, spent 12 months in exciting Cairo and 7 months in beautiful Dakar. In short: I love travelling and I love to get to know new people, new environments, new food, new styles of dancing salsa and all above new thoughts and inspiring ideas!

I have made a numbe of awesome couchsurfing experiences in Amsterdam, Gaborone, Warsaw, Chiang Mai, Malaga, Lagos, St. Petersburg, Moscow, Brussels, Accra, Dakar and Cairo. The people I got to know and the friendships I made are irreplaceable!
