I'm really sorry not to be able to host you anymore, but we are giving up our appartment in Marseille, squatting our friends and family's couches as well... Hope you have a blast !

Hello everybody,

I'm a German student on bachelor level, stranded in Marseille, thanks to Erasmus.
I found out how much one can love a place when I first went to Sanibel Island in Florida and even more in southern Frances Calanques.
Being a student, I'm a low budget travellor, but honestly I prefer to have a contact in the city I'm visiting, somebody who can recommend places no regular tourist knows about.

I guess the one thing we all have in common here is that we desperately want to have a good time travelling. Though, wear a smile and discover what ever you're facing!

Recently my boyfriend Juan and I began to travel together. We are planning a long summer vacation in the US. We both have family in California and Florida, what allows us to see both coasts + their National Parks :) But, as they are rather elderly people we will travel on our own. We'd like to meet "locals" not only other tourists, share our time and discover the most interesting places that you advice us.

To make a long story short, we'd be happy to meet you :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We like to visit new places. And it's even more interesting if there is somebody around to give us local insider's information :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I prefer HipHop and R'n'B et j'adore le rap francais ;) but I dislike the too often too sexist lyrics...
I'm not much into movies and series, normally I prefer the written version, nevertheless I can highly recommend "Blow" or "1914", "Selma" or "The pianist".
And then there are those books that give an insight into history or are set in places I know and I love them :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The first time I participated in a play was in Kindergarden, back then I was the rainbow fish it was already pretty cool!
Last year I focused on a more ideologic manner in bringing the Vagina Monologues of Eve Ensler to Marseille with a group of excellent girls!

Teach, Learn, Share

If you're prepared, I can teach you German lessons, if not forget about it, if I was you I wouldn't do it either ;)
I'd like to learn about your attitude, perhaps by sharing my favorite, a little hidden places of Marseille with you. And I share food on a great hiking tour through the Calanques !;)
