Hey, I'm Marina, 23 years old and I'm studying in Düsseldorf (German studies and Linguistics).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Cause I'm interested in the way natives see their country/city. Even though I of course would like to visit some sights like a real tourist that I am, I want to get a feeling for the town I visit (do you know what I mean?) For example visit your fav place in town

Interests

reading - I don't tend to read a specific genre, it just shouldn't be corny (well, actually i am not that undemanding). I also read comics/graphic novels ^^

photography - I don't know much about it, but at least I try to learn from my boyfriend who is pretty much into it =) Here you can check out his work : https://www.facebook.com/robinaustphotography/?fref=ts

music - I often go to concerts around my town with a group of friends. Since 3 years now its also kind of a tradition for us to go to a festival in Belgium. Its a cosy small festival, where you can also meet the artists from time to time cause they also eat in the cafeteria with the visitors and they listen to the other bands. Best part besides the music: they have actual real showers :D

and now just some keywords:

street art, art in general (like visiting exhibitions), watching series (Doctor Who, Bobs Burgers!, Community, Misfits, Love (thats a new one I just started), Once Upon A Time, Arrested Development, Shameless, Girls, Wilfred), fleamarkets, psycholinguistics (forensic linguistics)
