Overview
About Me
**fully vaccinated and of course I'll come tested**
CURRENT MISSION
settling into 8h/day-working life while not letting my hobbies die
ABOUT ME
I love talking to people, learning something from others, but have my introvert moments as well. I'm very spontaneous and impulsive, sometimes too spontaneous, but one important thing I learned is that there's a solution to every problem, even when you are stuck somewhere without speaking the language, no money or not having a place to sleep.
PHILOSOPHY
More espresso, less depresso.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
If you come to my place I'm happy to share everything with you: food, experiences, knowledge about all kind of stuff, and my flat of course,... whatever you need. Most of the time I'm really busy with work and/or uni but will try my best to make your stay a good one!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Had some pretty amazing hosts during my travels, and met so many different people because of couchsurfing, for a coffee, for a trip, for a concert, for a party, for a whole journey...
Interests
Traveling (of course), taking pictures of everything and everyone, seeing something new. I volunteer giving (wholesome, queer) sex education to school kids. Got a feminist book club running with a friend; generally smashing patriarchy takes up some of my time, too. Love going to concerts/festivals, every now and then a bit of a party.

Teach, Learn, Share
I can show you around wherever I am at that point, teach you some German, always enjoy exchanging some knowledge about other cultures and love to learn about your favourite recipe and/or music.
What I Can Share with Hosts
anything I know about places I've been to, my music and movie collection, recipes for German dishes (because by now I've become far better at cooking)... We'll think of something! :)
