About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Bag all Munros

ABOUT ME

I studied German language and literature, so I really enjoy reading and going to the theatre. I'm not so much a clubbing girl, but I really like to go out to the pubs having a drink with friends. I work as a teacher for German as a foreign language which is great, because people from all over the world sit in my classroom. And I enjoy cooking a lot, so if you are staying over, you have to eat ;)

PHILOSOPHY

"If we all light up we can scare away the dark"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a great thing! I really like the idea of being hospitable to people from all over the world and meet them as friends :)

Interests

BOOKS, theatre, movies, music (especially hip hop), sports (long-distance running, cricket and baseball), foreign languages (I study farsi/dari at the moment) and I like outdoor stuff such as trekking and camping. Some day I'll do the West Highland Way in less than 7 days :D
