About Me

I dropped out of Graduate School in Berlin in early 2018, went to live in Cancun, Mexico, for a year, then lived in Guadeloupe (French Caribbean) and now I've just returned to Germany in July 2020.
Born and raised in Hamburg, Germany. My dream is living and working without stress, just cuddling animals all day and eating plants. I need sunshine and positivity, no big city smog for too long. I'd love to get to know interesting people on my journey, teach them what I know and I'm always eager to learn from other beings, too. Make each other grow! Nature is my religion. Capitalism makes me sick.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There are still too many people who need to overcome prejudices. I love the idea of exploring new cultures, meeting strangers, making friends &being hospitable.
We need to show the world that there are still givers, not only takers.

Interests

Being outside, swimming, traveling, listening to music, walking around, doing sports, going out with friends, analize language, meeting new people, and a whole lot more!

Music, Movies, and Books

A lot of different types! I love to pick music from every country I've been to or that sounds interesting. So starting with r'n'b 90s, classic rock, blues, soul, rock and roll, 80s, hip hop, rap, ska and reggae to hawaiian tunes, arabic lovesongs, latinamerican beats like forró, cumbia, salsa, argentinian folklore and reggaeton, panamanian dancehall and brazilian samba...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A dazing silence at night on the country side of Argentina.

Simple but yet overwhelming things in nature like waterfalls, rivers, waves, wild animals, forests, heavy rain and mountains that impressed me more than any city on earth.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to learn and teach languages even tho I suck at explaing grammar. Right now I am learning French! I can teach you german, and maybe english, portuguese or spanish if you aren't on a higher level!
Languages are the key to culture. But so is love and kindness.

Wanna learn how to swim? I can teach you front crawl, breaststroke, or just surviving in the water!

I really enjoy cooking, baking and eating plant based food. So let's just share some local fruits and veggies, tell me all about them and I'll be happy ever after.
