I'm an open-minded person who is very interested in learning more about new countries and cultures. I'm interested in getting to know all kinds of different people, since I believe that everybody has something to give and something to share.
I'm a full-time student of Chinese Studies and Economics in Erlangen, Germany. In my free time, I love doing Yoga (the whole concept, not only asanas), running, reading, cooking and when I really have a lot of time, then travelling, of course.
I believe that the exchange between different persons is one of the crucial things in building a more harmonious society, since it helps to build mutual understanding.

At the moment, I'm not able to accept guests, but I'll be doing so as soon as my living circumstances have changed. ;-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to find a place to sleep in a friendly atmosphere, meet nice people, have interesting conversations.

Interests

The most important thing of my everyday life is Yoga (& Meditation), which helps me to keep my body and mind balanced. So my Yoga mat is definitely my most important travel equipment.
What is also never missing on my journeys are my running shoes. Wherever I am, I'll find an opportunity to go running. It's a nice way to get to know a new place, by the way.
Last but not least, I never go anywhere without taking at least one book with me.
