Currently working as an au-pair in Stuttgart, whilst trying - and failing - to work out what I want to do with the rest of my life.
I'd like to think of myself as a open, chatty and easy-going person. I can find worth and interest in everything and for me, there's nothing more fun and exhilarating than purposefully getting lost in a new city. That's how you find the most interesting and beautiful parts of a place!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I wanna see cities through the eyes of those who live in it. As a tourist your perspective is always a bit slanted. I want to be able to experience the tourist hotspots whilst also being shown the cool hidden away cafés, parks, forests...
