About Me

I just finished my BA in American Studies and History, so now I want to see for myself how you roll and what it's like over there! Apart from that, I usually keep myself busy with lots of music, mainly in the bands Apollo Papillon and The Lindau Project (on guitar and vocals)
In general, I'd say I'm fairly open minded, accepting of unconventional lifestyle choices or circumstances and try to avoid consumption as best I can. While I prefer to eat vegan, I'm open to accomodate and would be glad to cook some nice vegan meals for you! :) As far as politics go let's just say that I'm neither triggered by tolerance nor afraid of feminism and like to stay critical haha

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To get to know kool people, their places, and form some friendly bonds. I believe that traveling someplace without really experiencing and learning to understand the people, culture, society, history would be boring and a waste of time. If you're a chill, kind, funny human being we'll get along for sure :3

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

some Swiss impressions sort of:
The lively warm vertigo of Lausanne and vistas of Lake Geneva, or paradise if you ask me
Bathing in Bern's cool Aare skinny-dipped on a particularily sunny March morning
That time in Iceland when our tour guide spoke Icelandic with a Swiss accent lol

Teach, Learn, Share

I could give you some German lessons, teach you a host of songs on the guitar, share some poetry/writing methods or ramble endlessly about history or music haha
I'm not that well versed in music theory, so I'd be down for some lessons if that's your thing ^^
