CURRENT MISSION

GO TO BURNING MAN

ABOUT ME

I am Marie, 20 years old and I am working in a cinema in Berlin. 2013 I have graduated from high school, were working as a dresser for a movie and were travelling a lot. This year I will (hopefully) study "communication/ visual design" at the largest art university in Europe.
I am really interested in design, art, music and travelling. And I'd love to go to concerts and festivals.

PHILOSOPHY

Money is no barrier in sense of travelling! If you're not fussy and know how to do, you only need a bit of money for your trip. There are more possibilities than thought.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I did couchsurfing a few times and I am really enthusiastic! I had a great time with my hosts and I'd love the personal atmosphere while the stay in another country.

My interests are traveling, festivals, art (with regard to study communication design), meet friends and certainly new people, to explore the outland, make new experiences and see common things in diffrent ways.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It began with a thought, or more a dream, I've shared with my class mate during biology class. Two months later standing on the highway, armed with backpacks, a map, Ozora tickets and weak-kneed we startet the Eastern Europe Tour we had dreamed of.
In 2 months we were hitchhiking to 11 lovely cities in 6 diffrent countries and 3 festivals. We did couchsurfing (thanks a lot to our hosts!)as much as we could, but caused of non-internet periods we did wild camping as well. We acquired a lot of indispensable experiences and impressions and got to know a lot of wonderful people.

Teach, Learn, Share

The only thing I want to entrust is hitchhiking- for sure it's not everybody's taste, but if you interested in you really have to TRY it. (Take a look at hitchwiki.org)
