About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Writing my master thesis about empathy in psychotherapists to improve selection of professionals - an meanwhile trying to figure out what option to chose for working after some social work in Africa next year

ABOUT ME

a caring, crazy, never resting person, never stopping getting to know new people, enjoying arts, new experiences, other cultures, challenges, concerts, expositions,.. but all of this in combination with loving my home, my base, my flat with my beautiful 5 flatmates like a second family and seeing my real family from time to time. A good equilibrium between adventure, new environment, new connections and a place where your heart is and you feel at home is the most important thing for me!

After passing a year abroad, in France, and half a year in Poland, I nearly finished my studies of psychology which i began in Germany. I'd love to see all the tiny little places worth seeing in the world to really get to know every country and its habitants, so I know all the cultures and people surrounding me.

Soon the serious part of life is calling which I'd like to spend in some social institution for developmental health or counceling insititution for drug addicts while maybe doing some research to imporove the psychological health system.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to have new impressions, get new ideas and attitudes about life, see different styles of living to be able to develop myself - and to show my way of living to others so that there's a mutual exchange!

Interests

I go crazy about all of those insterests; i love to integrate them in my life as often as possible! The biggest love I have is Capoeira Angola
