We are Patrick (29) and Melina (25), a team since 2012 and after four years in Leipzig studying philosophy (Melina) and beeing a musician (Patrick), we have resigned our flat to start travelling and new projects.
After saving some money, we have chosen Kyrgyzstan for our first two-month journey - looking for adventure, great people and landscape, beautiful horses and some inspiration.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I joined the couchsurfing community in 2011 while travelling one year through Australia and New Zealand. After spending a few days in a crowded hostel, I was looking for another way to get in touch with locals and their authentic lifestyles. The most interesting and wonderful travel experiences I owe to my hosts - it´s the best way to really get to know a country and its characteristics.
