About Me

I am a student from Germany and kust finished a voluntary service in Lithuania. I worked at a school with children and now I'm studying Central Banking. My free time is spent travelling and getting to know new countries and their people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined because I absolutely love to travel. As I'm only nineteen and finished my A-levels, now is my time to explore the world. My family likes to stay in Germany, so I always tried to join some youth groups traveling together. Now I'm an adult and can go whereever I want, which is awesome. Couchsurfing is a great opportunity for me to not only visit different countries but also meet new people on the way. In my opinion the best way to get to know a country is through its people. It's the same in Lithuania. I learn the most about it through my host family who are always happy to speak with me.

Interests

I have various interests. I'm an active person. I love sports. I like athletics, riding and dancing most. Ice skating, soccer or any other game is great too. What I can't do I try to learn. I'd love to go hiking.

I can also appreciate a relaxing evening at home, tea in one hand and book in my lap, listening to all kinds of music:) When inspiration strikes I like to write myself, Poetry Slam or some stories.

I love events. Concerts, opera, theater are all great!
I play clarinet and french horn and try to learn to play the guitar when I have time, because one can sing AND play.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I skyped with an astronaut who was in training and living in an u-boat under the sea at that time.

I climbed on a vulcan once.

I stood under a waterfall on La Réunion.

I spend a week in Taizé getting to know people from all over the world. A week without smartphone and without internet and it was great!

Teach, Learn, Share

Four things do not come back: the spoken word, the sped arrow, time passed and the neglected opportunity. - Omar Idn Al-Halif

When you spend your whole life being somebody else who is going to be you?

Every problem is an opportunity in disguise.

One does not need money to travel but courage.

A stiff apology is a second insult. The injured party does not want to be compensated because they have been wronged; they want to be healed because they have been hurt.
