I am a student, currently living in a shared flat in Leipzig. I study European and U.S. history and culture there. I like to cook, although I am not really good at it, and I like almost every form of dance: I have danced ballet, and modern and contemporary dance for many years, and I also like to go out to dance, especially to ska or reggae concerts. I like to read novels, I like train rides, I like potato soup. If a nice fairy would grant me one wish, I would like to be able to learn any language in a day. I hate spiders and feet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think couchsurfing is an amazing way to get to know new places and feel more integrated, almost 'at home', not as isolated as in some hotel or hostel. I like to get to know different human beings, different cultures, different perspectives and share a little bit of my own. Also, I am a student who needs to save money :P
