About Me

Sorry! I'm not in Berlin from 29.10.-03.11. and cannot answer to requests.

CURRENT MISSION

at the moment I try to get my studies done, pay my rent and of course enjoy my life and travel from time to time

ABOUT ME

I'm a fashion-design student and have been living in Berlin for 20years now.
I love pumpkin-soup (and my roommates say, I'm very good at it), music and dancing, german beer and good conversations (and am Besten all of that in one evening)
I live in a shared apartment with 4 other people. All my roommates are super niceand open-minded. It's a great atmosphere. Would be cool, if you were not only looking for a hostel;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't been hosting couchsurfers for quite a while, due to a difficult roommate-situation. But, now that I moved, I gained the space and energy and approval of my fellow roommates to host people!

My roommates and me had couchsurfers from Japan, Mexico and Brazil.
It's a great way of getting in touch with people you'd normally wouldn't meet and give those, who want, a great experience in the city I live in.

Interests

Since I study fashion, it's one of my interest. Though I'm not quite into the "fashion world" but more into the ethical topics and grafic-design and illustration and art itself.

I spend many evenings with friends in our kitchen or bars, drinking, talking, sometimes playing ukulele or boardgames or jogging. I'm a lot into movies and series. We have a projector in our apartment, so movienights are a regular thing.
I love seeing and experiencing new places and new people and their stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been backpacking through Japan for a month with friends in 2012 and backpacking through Europe with a friend after finishing school in 2009.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to read cyrillic and a bit Ukulele and share my favourite places in the city with you as well as my place, of course.

What I Can Share with Hosts

time, apartment
(we basically share everything in the apartment anyway and we see our couchsurfers as guests but also as roommates. So we want you to feel comfortable but also to clean after yourself, we're not a hotel.)

Countries I’ve Visited

Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, France, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In

Russian Federation
