Hi, I'm Marie. I study how to make films, I occasionally do some poetry slamming and I love cats and all kinds of food. So, just place a cat on my lap, hand me some pasta and tell me about your life and I'll be happy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because as a German every penny I can save makes me very happy indeed. ;)
And I like people and I always try to get to know them on another level than pointless chitchat.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
If I'm in the right mood I can listen to pretty much everything!
Normally I enjoy a mix of chilled folk/pop and some electro swing or house as well.

Movies/Shows:
American Beauty; Fight Club; Harry Potter; The Perks Of Being A Wallflower (a.k.a. something sentimental from my youth); Sherlock; Stranger Things; Westworld; and many more

Books:
I've read more books in my life than I can count, but here are some of those I kept in my heart: Harry Potter; The Book Thief; Jane Eyre; Me Before You (gotta throw something soppy-emotional in there); To Kill A Mockingbird

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Survived the taxi of death in Morocco - which I got myself into. Really made me appreciate life a lot more!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to learn new things. Be it recipes, sports (even if I'm a little clumsy, it's still fun to try, even if I might fail while doing so) or just to learn about your favorite things, spots in a city or memories.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to cook and to eat the result - and I enjoy sharing this with others. I think creating and consuming a meal together brings people closer together.
