After doing an Erasmus semester in Finland I'm currently traveling around Europe with some friends from said Erasmus :)

I'm studying social work in Würzburg after spending some time traveling&living in New Zealand.
During one of my summer jobs I worked as an supervisor in an institute for foreign languages. They are teaching kids, from all over the world, german and I worked and lived together with them for several months now. Love the work there and learning everyday something about new cultures, food, religion, politics or language! I even know some words in chinese/russian/gaelic now. It's been enriching my life and I'd like to keep it up!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Experienced a lot of kindness along my way so far and I learned that this is one of the best ways to travel. Meet locals, get into touch with them - make some new friends all over the world.

Intereses

I love old, medieval buildings, churches (though I'm not a religious person) - I just admire the architecture, art and the history.
I like to hang around with my friends, doesn't matter what you're doing as long as you're in good company!
While traveling I prefer doing all kinds of adventurous stuff and I like to try new things. Always keep an open mind. I did caving, edge walking, jumped from the sky tower, kayaking, hiking in national parks and along the beach, dog sleding, cross country skiiing, rafting, snowshoeing, hitchhiking, stand up paddling, horse riding, climbing, live-action escape games.. I went to a haunted house (that was no fun)
Tried local cuisine. I'm a foodie, can't deny it.

• being a badass

Música, películas y libros

Current book on my night stand:
Zygmunt Bauman - Strangers at Our Door

Massive fan of Game of Thrones! Got hooked up on that and forced to read the books during my time living in Auckland. It's just addictive!

Sounds cheesy but I love Pride&Prejudice. The book as well as the movie from 2005.

Lord of the Rings - of course. One of the reasons I've been to NZ. To make everyone jealous - I've been to the Shire too and I even held the spiked mace of the Witchking of Angmar ;)

Algo increíble que he hecho

Left everything behind to live and travel for around 10 months in New Zealand! Visited Milford Sounds, did caving, enjoyed the city life in Auckland, meet amazing people that became my second family during my time there!

Did blind-booking with a friend last summer and ended up in Italy having a blast, meeting great people at a huge CS event there and partying on a tram in the city center of Milano.

Drove through a blizzard in Canada with a rental car to go snowshoeing. Felt pretty canadian.

Survived -39 degree in Lappland while watching the northern lights - simply stunning and I don't even know how to desrcibe the cold!

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

Some really good german cooking recipes from my grandmother!
I really like to be an ambassador for my country and culture. I'm interested in talking about politics, society and history. Always happy to share but also to learn something new!
