I would describe myself as open-minded, outgoing, and fun person with lots of creative energy. I love to cook for a crowd and to eat great food. I like climbing and hiking, but even more I like to travel by bike. I love to travel off road avoiding the great crowds.
I study applied literary and cultural studies what makes me naturally interested in meeting new people from different cultures and improving my intercultural communication skills. I do not only enjoy the experience, I want to understand. Discussing the world, asking uncomfortable questions, taking a point of view from outside the system belongs to traveling.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

You can't plan adventures!

I'm looking for a personal and interesting way to travel, to meet people not on the surface level but explore real personalities. You get to know places only by getting to know the people and by asking questions. Also getting to know the city by insiders is worth more than all Lonely Planets in the world.

I also sometimes offer my couch, just send me a text.
