Hi there! I'm a curious and spontaneous person and I try to understand the world through different perspectives. I do not only want to visit countries but to experience and understand how people live, eat and talk. I love spontaneous adventures, jungle bike tours and nothing is more beautiful to me than the smell of a sea breeze in the evening.

I was born in Germany, lived most of my life in Switzerland, and studied and worked in the UK for five years and I'm now teaching English in France. I studied Linguistics, English Language and Film Studies in Cambridge and Manchester in case anyone wants to geek out over that kind of stuff ;)

I've studied several languages and I'm always happy to learn new phrases and expressions in any language!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet great people, have a good time and to explore countries and cultures in an authentic way. No place is the same and I haven't met a person who didn't have something interesting to share or a crazy anecdote to tell.
