I am a very outgoing and friendly person. I love to meet new people and travel around the world. My next trip is planned this summer and it is a little bit closer to home: Europe. I am very excited to see all kinds of different cultures and explore so many different countries. :D
Right now I am studying English and Chemistry to become a High School teacher after my graduation. But who knows what will happen when I am all grown up?! Or will I ever grow up?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Of course to meet new people. I love different cultures and experience new things. A lot of my friends have already done Chouchsurfing and loved the experience, so I decided I wanted to try it, when I was travelling in the US and it was most definitely the best decision ever.
I met the most amazing and generous people and only because of our hosts we had such unique experiences in all of the cities I visited. A couchsurfing trip is worth so much more than any travel guide. You really experience the place and the people!

Interests

Sharing experiences with others. I like to travel, hang out, have good conversation and I really like to play games. Especially board games :)
Otherwise I love to teach kids things about tolerance and differnt cultures. I do this through my old exchange organisiation with which I have done a high school exchange in 11th grade. Ever since then I have volunteered with this non profit organization and I have met the most interesting people from all different backgrounds and all different countries.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love to read thrillers, but I enjoy the classics also.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming with Dolphins in New Zealand.
Seeing the northern lights in Alaska.
Snorkling with sea turtles on Hawaii.
Meeting new people from all different backgrounds and hearing their stories.
The world can be an amazing place, if we all open up to it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to share all kinds of stories and experiences with you and everyone who is interested. In general I just love to talk. (typical teacher, right?)
But hey I also love to hear great stories and talk about issues that matter, or maybe just talk nonsense :) Whatever comes up. But you can be sure that with me there will be no quiet time in the house. :P
