Hi, I'm Lina. I grew up in a small village close to Hamburg in Germany.

I studied Social Work in Hamburg and lived there (most of the time) as well. I've been for three months in Leeds, England for an exchange and lived for round about a year in Groningen, the Netherlands where I did an internship at addiction aid which I enjoyed very much. I just moved to Lübeck to work in a rehab clinic. I love to learn about other cultures and meet new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to get to know new people and hear stories about their life. Couchsurfing gave me the opportunity to make some special memories and I would like to give something back by being host myself. En ik ben altijd blij als ik met iemand in mijn lievelingstaal kan praten! But no worries, you are also welcome if you speak English haha.

Interests

I would say I'm broadly interested and love learning new things. I'm especially curious in human nature and different points of view.

Music, Movies, and Books

At the moment I'm reading Invisible Women by Caroline Criado Parez, a book about art history and one about the impact of language on our lives. I'm always looking for recommendation of Dutch authors :)
