I WILL JUST HOST FOR REAL EXCHANG!!!! Please don't write unpersonalised messages for free accommodation!!!

Hey guys!
My name is Mandy and I am happy you found my profile here ;)
I am always up for meeting new people, stories, and lifes!

I studied biochemistry/ molecular medicine and are now nearly finishing my PHD in cancer research (still needing to hand in the thesis :D). As my time for traveling was quite rare due to working, I love to do the best out of the journeys I can go on!!!
Finally- last year, I was starting to change my life, to get out of the system and combine what I am really passionate about with enough flexibility and time for traveling!

Since the last years, I am learning a lot about fitness, nutrition, health and scientific ways to improve it as well as mental health, mindfulness and personality development, which improved my life and relations incredibly!! Therefore my new vision is helping and empowering others to improve their lives as well!!! Since then I am freelancing as a coach, health consultant/trainer and guide for different journeys as well as my own journeys and retreats (combining external with internal journeys)! (IG: change.and.create)

Also I took the time to learn what I always wanted to learn: DJing! So since last year I am also a DJ bringing together the best of melodic house/techno, progressive, afrohouse and trance (IG/SC: maradoca). The next step is now to learn how to produce music!

Anyone who has a passion for learning, self-improval or music (techno? :D) is super welcome - I am always happy to exchange with likeminded people.
