I m Paula. I am 20 years old, I know my profile said 25 I don’t know why and I can’t change it. But please don’t let my age definite me :-)

I m from Germany and I m uncomplicaded (still complicated but for a german easy going)

My Hogwarts house is something between Slytherin and Hufflepuff.
My patronus is a cat.

I finished school with 16 years, then I did some financialmagement studies in a college in Reutlingen, Germany.

After that I worked in Reykjavik, Iceland for a environment ngo. Seeds Iceland 🇮🇸

At the moment I live as a volunteer in Bishkek, Kyrgystan and work with for homless kids in a childrens home.

ITS NOT POSSIBLE TO VISIT THIS PLACE! ITS A CHILDRENSHOME WHERE CHILDRENS WITH STORIES ARE LIVING. ITS NOT A PLACE FOR TOURIST TO WATCH THEM! DONT ASK ME FOR THAT!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me travelling is not so much about landscape or nice cities. For me its more the people. Most of the time this is the most amazing part.
Sharing storys, enjoying life, having fun, making storys. Making friendship. Please dont talk with me about the weather..

Interests

I feel like my interests are all over the place, I like to make party, go camping, I am interested in politics, cultures, food, am open to new experiences.
I love all kind of art, I love outdoor activisies, I m really into live music and love to sing drunk karaoke.

I really dont like any kind of hate or violence, racism, homophobia or anything in that sector.
It makes me really angry! And I expect from everybody to be tolerante with anything, especially on CS.

I'll rarely say no to something (unless it's illegal or very dangerous), and can be pretty spontaneous/responsible at the same time. It's possible, trust me. :)
