Why I’m on Couchsurfing

By travelling through a country with "Couchsurfing" you get to know not only its cities, landscapes, you get to know the people there and what really matters in their countries. To me over talking you get a chance to really understand a country and its people. So that is why Couchsurfing for me is the best way to get to know a country.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In New Zealand I got to know so many people around the world. And I was also an au pair (in 2012) and had a really awesome family. So if you love children, just love them and they will love you too. It is a great experience to get so much love from foreign people. I am still in contact with my au pair fam.

Teach, Learn, Share

Love others and be yourself.
