I work as an academic in the performing arts, theater, and more. I concern myself currently with the cultural politics of Germany.

I am an activist, specialize in decoloniality and work in anti-racist policy.

Other than that: I love different cultures and to listen to people's stories. I like to talk to people on trains, planes, and buses just to listen to their lives and stories. I also change my hair a lot so...

I believe in the philosophy of couch surfing and hate people who use it solely to have sex or to find dates. It is not an exotic hook up place. I don't like or respect desperate, creepy people.

I’ll host you if you give me a good request that shows who you are and if you read this description.

LGBTQ+ safe space. Vegan + vegetarian friendly.

I really love dancing, experimental & electronic music… Most music in general. If you like those things, we will most likely have something to talk about

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy meeting new people and cultures. I like to share what I love about my city. I want to travel and be invited to see a glimpse of people's lives. I believe this world is too small to be (too) afraid of strangers. (Some fear is always smart to have! Haha) I fell in love with the traveling life style when I couch surfed through the Southern states of America during the summer by myself. I decided that I wanted to be brave and do more of that in Europe and meet people who believe in the goodness of people as much as I do.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I performed an exorcism once. Long. Story.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to share and develop more compassion and empathy.

I am fluent in English and speak Vietnamese. I am learning German and know a little French.

I can introduce you to the Fitzmaurice vocal tremor work and technique.

I have some Vietnamese recipes up my sleeve!

I taught yoga before, so I am still maintaining my practice.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I study performance studies and acting. I also study holistic body work and technique for vocal expression. I can entertain you with a few of my mastered accents and teach you one? I study IPA (international phonetics alphabet) and give you a crash course on it. I am classically trained in Shakespeare.
