About Me

Hey!
I'm a 21 year-old german girl whose biggest passion is to travel, see the world, get to know new people with their unique life-storys so I can still my curiosity.
Currently I'm studying in lovely city in Bavaria (south-east of Germany) and enjoying my young, unbound years. I'm really enjoying myself and all the opportunities this world offers us. As I've already been living in several places and been to many countries I guess I already heard a million interesting storys and met tons of fantastic, outstanding, lovely people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Great opportunity to meet new people, have a place to stay and learn about the culture of countries. I think it's also pretty cool to kind of see a place through the eyes of a local when being showed around and going out at night.

Music, Movies, and Books

I do love music - I don't have one favourite genre though. Scrolling through my spotify-songs you will find everything over cheesy pop-songs, swing, german rap, classical music, oldschool-hiphop, electronic music and synthie pop. My taste of music portays me as a person: complex and with difficulties to settle for one thing.
When asked about movies: I'm in love with old movies like Breakfast at Tiffanys, War and Peace and so on. But I also really like dramas like spotlight, Titanic, Brokeback Mountain.
My all-time-favourite-book is probably one day and the alchemist, but I've read so so many books in my life that it's hard for me to choose just a few.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After passing my A-Level I've been travelling though Australia for 11 months (very common for german girls aged around 18, I know) and been to Asia for 1 month after that. The greatest experience that I had was problably to visit Angkor Wat in Cambodia and snorkeling out on the Great Barrier Reef. I've never felt that close to nature, culture and our world before travelling for such a long time on my own.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Storys, laughs, excellent german wine and chocolate, okayisch cooking and better baking-skills and just a really intense, memorable time. I don't only want to have a place to stay but also really get to know the person who's hosting me.
