Hello,
My name is Lisa and I'm from Germany.
I'm an open-minded person and I just love travelling! I'm basically interested in all countries, its habitants and their habitants - thus, I travel as much as possible.

Current mission: Looking for Santa Claus in Lapland :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In 2012, I have been in England for more or less 3 weeks and it has been a great experience because I didn't only meet British people, but also people from Greece, Germany, America, Poland, etc. and it has always been a great time and I learnt so many things about culture, point of views, insiders for each city, etc.
In 2013, a friend of mine and I did 1,5 weeks of couchsurfing in France (Bordeaux, Toulouse, Montpellier, Avignon) and again, I was stunned how much people over you during your stay and I felt sorry not being able to give back as much as I would have liked to.
In 2013, my brother and I went to America for 4 weeks to do a road trip along the East Coast (Minneapolis - Chicago - Toronto - Boston - NYC - DC - North Carolina, etc.). Absolutely great time with so many interesting people and places we stayed at and I think I can officially claim that my brother now totally loves CS as well.
2013: Couchsurfing all around Canada
2015: Some couchsurfing in Spain
2016: Couchsurfing in New Zealand and Australia (amazing!)
I would love to continue this great experience!

As you can see, I haven't done couchsurfing in a while, since I own a camper for trips around Europe, but I'd love to make more experiences.
