Hey guys,
I am Nina, a German who is currently based in Lisbon. I love moving around and meeting interesting people, either alone or with my friends. The town I come from is super small, but situated in a nice area at a lake were I go for long walks with friends & family in the forest, sail, swim or do whatever people do at lakes.

My passion is writing, about anything and I made it my job. Also I like to paint and draw and sing. Right now I am learning to play the guitar but I am still terrible at it! Believe me haha!

I lived abroad quite a few times already. Before moving to Lisbon I spend a long time in Northern California and Barcelona. I also did internships in Palma de Mallorca and Mexico-City, both awesome places. I will not stay in Lisbon forever and move back to Germany this summer, since I started feeling at home there recently.
My friends and I like doing simple things: Hanging out for Barbecue and Campfires, having sit-ins in my Apartment (or someone else's, of course) and meet up for a beer at night, so basically very casual activities.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I couchsurfed quite a while ago but I am down to go do it again! It's been great experiences back then.
