I grew up on the countryside of the german speaking part of Switzerland and then moved to Zurich to study communication and non-profit management. I would like to make the world a little better through my being around so I worked for a few NGOs and got the chance to travel the world quite a bit. My last job was at the Red Cross in Switzerland which I quit to travel through South America and India for 6 months with my boyfriend Mike. I love getting to know new people and learning about their cultures and customs.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
